Valentine Poetic Asides

 A Special Valentine

 

I woke up yesterday and felt soul-drained.

I did not know if I had strength to work.

How could I be with kids when foggy-brained?

And those sweet ones can drive me clear berserk.

 

In morning quiet time, I said a prayer,

To be a light though I felt very dim.

To somehow show the children that I care,

Then I entrusted my day unto Him.

 

At Nature Center, we exchanged our names.

We learned I got LeAnna’s, she got mine.

An eight-year-0ld who liked her fun and games,

Amidst red hearts and bows, she wrote, “You shine

 

like the sun.” Though her words were ones of love,

They were not hers alone but from above.
