Three Facebook pages on writing, a post a day on each for the month of July, combined and posted here as well.
Small Stone, July 2014, Seventeenth
Oh, to be able to sooth away the pain, the sorrow I see and replace it with joy and hope.
July Writing Project - A Poem a Day - Day Seventeen
My mother's eyes
Were once the same blue
As I view the world through
Now they are clouded
I wonder at times
If her ability to focus has
Turned inward, as she strains
So often for a word
A name
A special day so long spent
Then joy and relief
Light her as if from within
And lines of concern
Ease
As those elusive joys
Are reclaimed
Seventeenth Noticing, July 2014
We sleep in shifts, because the cats are so ... catlike
