My Weekend With You In My Thoughts |
| by Julie Jordan Scott |
| I met my dear friend for lunch Laughed, shared, discussed Realized how much she would enjoy Your special blend of humor I smiled A private smile and thought of you Kathie had a friend spend the night Two six year olds to play with and cuddle Read stories, said prayers, sang songs Kissed good night and tucked snugly in Saw our two girls in my mind, thought of you Fixed pancakes Saturday morning Sweet smell filled the house Family came out of the woodwork for breakfast And I thought of cooking in the morning Especially for a special man, thought of you Took the kids skating on Saturday Had a great time on wheels, not blades Beat Bianca while racing, laughed a lot Fell flat on my butt, jumped right back up Thought of skating on ice, thought of you Spent Saturday night laughing with friends Letting my hair down and being silly Hadn't laughed that hard in forever and a day Wished it would go on and on and on Only having one person there would have made it better.... Thought of you Sunday morning dawned beautiful and bright Blue skies warm without a cloud Sat in church and prayed for you and your classes and work Your family, Your Dad's surgery, your health I felt content and at peace for a moment, thought of you Took the girls to the park in the afternoon Played on the swings and the slide and ran like crazy Fed hungry ducks, gave bread to kids all around Wore shorts and a t-shirt it was so nice and warm Chasing Emma I looked at my feet, saw running shoes, thought of you Sitting quietly for a moment Sipping some iced tea at the end of the day My mind slowly wanders, aimlessly traveling Day dreaming and soon I feel heart messages Emotions of love...I realize....I thought of you. |

a concise expression of feelings, emotions and thoughts that any single parent can relate to when for whatever reason, they can't/aren't with the one they love. wow!

I like this poem more and more each time I read it....I can almost smell the pancakes myself. Great work Julie.

I like the simplicity by which you express your feelings
