Late Night Writing

I am sliding into Poetry Friday at the latest possible time I can imagine but I have my  reasons. I thought of writing last night BUT I was presenting my last professional development session of the school year on Zoom to the Reading Specialists Council of Suffolk and writing my combined Spiritual Journey Thursday and Two Writing Teachers March Writring Challenge post, all of this while my little grandgirls were enjoying their five- day-stay-over with at Grandpa and Grandma's house. 

A Just Be Day

Little Loveys

Wake-up early

Race down the stairs

With energy

Dressed in jammies

Little Loveys

Plan their day two

Wide-eyed wonders

Choose their first show

Usual foods

Little Loveys

Find their rhythm

Still in jammies

coloring, playing

slow-paced day for

Little Loveys.

You might think that I had time to write today BUT I was too busy trying to keep up with the pace of the two little girls and other life interruptions. So here I am at the latest possible time before the clock strikes midnight. 

I planned to share a book review of Matt Forrest Esenwine's fabulous new book, "Everybody Counts", but did not have time today. Watch for the review to come out soon.

The little grandgirls had a stay-at-home-in-jammies day BUT still wanted to play right up to bedtime. The energy of children seems to be like the Energizer Bunnies' pace while Grandma was exhausted.

Now to finally have time to add this post to the Poetry Friday Roundup hosted by the fabulous author/poet Tanita S. Davis at {fiction, instead of lies}.

The grandgirls will be with us until Tuesday morning so my visits to writers' blogs will be slower than usual.
