Laughter departed,
Or died a slow death.
We weren’t sure which.
You asked why we didn’t dance
When we dusted anymore,
As we did when I taught you to do
The washing machine.
But we were told it was “nasty”
And I “ought not” teach you that.
Plus, we played “that
Jungle and Mexican music too loud.”
So, our hips and feet stilled.
Then you dusted no more,
And I couldn’t blame you.
Fun stopped breathing.
No paramedics needed.
We survived.
Forgetting the joy
of everyday.
Navigating life through grandparenthood, chronic illness, dream work, and other inspirations
A dose of fetish. Good friends. An incomparable muse.
These are my inner thoughts, passions and inspirations.
An insight to a heart mind and soul.
An onion has many layers. So have I!
