Mirror Vs. Heart

 I walk past the Mirror.. Then take a second look... The Image is a character  from a Fairy Tale old book. Who the heck is that.. My eyes squint to recognize that face.. That's not how I feel inside Or think inside this space.. My Mind, My Heart, My Soul, Is still very young at Heart.. That stranger in the Mirror Looks like a pastry that's too tart. My mind still dreams of Dancing and Twirling all night long... But going up and down the stairs Proves the bod is not that strong... The Mirror does not reveal The girl who still loves to play with toys Nor the girl who loved to look  At all the Handsome Boys... Well Mirror vs. Young at Heart A Secret I Cannot Hide... Know this World, It's true... That Young Girl lives inside!!

A Poem About Moms

                                                          To Mommies Everywhere Mommies, Mommies, Mommies   Come in every size... And Inside every Mommy Comes a very sweet Surprise... Moms are very nurturing  with their furries, coworkers, or friend.. Every M om's family is special with a Love that cannot bend. Just like opening a present.. A Mom's a Gift that keeps on Giving.. And if you are a Lucky Kid.. A Mom gives every Day she's Living.. Little ones do not know Selflessness is on the Cape she wears But they DO know the Hugs and Kisses Are Gifts she always shares. True, some Mommies are not Huggers or spout "I Love You" every day.. But Mom is always there..Somewhere.. Giving Something..in a Special Mommy Way! Yes, Mommy Day is celebrated The second Sunday every May.. But Come On World..Get Real.. Every day IS Mommy's Day.. (And that's what Mommies Say!) Happy Mother's Day to All!!

If you are a Caregiver....

  I have been there and hope I can help out your distress and offer some positive thoughts...I do wish I had someone share thoughts with me while taking care of my Mom.  I had 2 in laws with Dementia and my Dad had Alzheimers but I was not responsible for them aside from visiting and doing Laundry but my Mom lived with my Family for 8 years. She had brain damage from low sodium...Who knew? You always hear about high sodium causing health issues but so does low sodium. The brain damage mimicked Alzheimers plus hallucinations. But I digress. I have 3 sons...one was working in New York and the 2 at home were in 8th grade and a Sophomore in High School. I share that because they were my salvation plus my husband. But eventually they were up and out and about & my husband and I were by ourselves and working at the time while taking care of my Mom. What do I wish I knew? I truly had very little patience like after cooking 3 different dinners and my Mom did not want any of them. I never s
