I rarely idle time away
But while waiting for a friend today
I settled on a bench~ in a children’s park
I watched the children screech and play
As they frolicked springtime hours away
And I envied them their freedom~ what a lark!
The sprinkler sprayed The swings swayed
As children struggled gamely~ to disembark
As I enviously surveyed the glad display
I observed another watcher meet my gaze
My humor mirrored hers~ an answering smirk!
For even though our childhood days
Were but a mist and gone away
In that shared smile~ the memories lurked.

A Wife, Mother, Grandmother with tons of experience in the arena called *Life* I love information, and endeavor to utilize it as practically as possible. I have worked as a Healthcare coordinator, HR Manager for over 26 yrs, and still employed (19 +years) as a Property Manager of a large complex (I joke that I’m the mayor of a small city). I have raised 4 children, one of whom (a daughter) ❤️has recently completed suicide,which has changed my life forever. I have 8 lovely grandchildren. I love to write poetry and short stories, cook, explore religious experiences and be in charge of stuff :)
