If hustle and bustle Is all that we know, Then what do you do when There's nowhere to go? With lights aglow And hearts below How can we not Want somewhere to go? Where do you go When nobody wants you? Where do you turn when All the bridges are burned? Maps are destroyed And bridges are burned How could you know Which way to turn? Did I come from this way? Or maybe that road... How could I know, 'Less I ask the toad? Christmas isn't Quite Christmas Without family Around. Christmas Ain't Christmas On the other Side of town. Just one county over Just one short road trip I feel like it must Be taken by ship. No matter the choice Of transportation You've taken longer Just to vacation. Grandparents are good. Grandparents are great. Grandparents should help For goodness sake! 12.25.14 Copyright From A Poet's Heart

I have been writing poetry full-time since September 2014. I am a mom of 3 boys ages 12, 7 & 5, and stepmom to a son age 24, a daughter age 23 and a daughter age almost 19. I am happily divorced from my abusive ex husband and happily remarried to the man of my dreams. My new husband and i met thru poetry on Facebook. I like to read, write, and draw. I like music of ALMOST n e kind. I also listen to songs and rewrite the lyrics to a portion of my life story.
