Smile

A smile,

sometimes hard to crack

on this busy face...

preoccupied,
constant motion,

always wondering,

"What's next?"

Beauty,

life,

wonder

surround me.

Looking.

Waiting.

For time to just be.

The moments,

big and small,

happy and sad,

easy and complicated.

Moving on fast forward.

I watch my loves,

my babies.

They giggle,

hold hands,

snuggle,

love each other.

There is no better time

to stop and smile

and savor the sweet sounds

of "I love you Mama."

Because there is no rewind.

Still there?
This was inspired by a wonderful time my kiddos and I had on the beach collecting sea glass. The waves were crashing, there was amazement and wonder in their voices and questions. We were connected to each other.
It made me smile.

Thanks for indulging me.
That is my stab at Writer's Workshop for the week -
stepping out of my comfort zone!
I figured covered my coffee consumption
and my feelings of burnout last week with I Confess.
