    That time you missed my birthday

    That time you missed my birthday     That’s when I grew up. It’s when I knew I didn’t figure in your plans or rise to your consciousness   Time to put on the big girl pants, get on with life on my own   So I did with a vengeance turning...

      • Thanks, Damian
        It feels good to have something to say again. Reposted this one because of the next one, which is a new write.
        Happy new year!

    • This is excellent! It reminds me of the saying
      Never let them see you sweat.
      For me that applies to determination. To simply refuse to be taken for granted.
      Love this!

      • This one stung a bit back when I wrote it… but things have shifted.
        Thanks for reading!
        ❤️k

    • hello lovely Broken One I feel I missed out on something in you it so hard for me to connect with people… I would hope I could make you feel special always great write ❤️

      • Hi Brenda
        You have a knack for making people feel special! Thanks for connecting with this.
        Happy new year
        ❤️k

    • Dear K,

      Ouch. The sting in this write was an eye opener. It made me feel how much I’d dislike feeling exposed and minimized. I’m sorry if the event is personal history and not the use of metaphor but this is a succinct poem of how vulnerable we can be. Great piece. H🌷

      • Yeah, this was ouchy back when I wrote it, you’re definitely right about that. I reposted because I wrote a counterpart today… with much less ouch.
        ❤️k

    • Beautifully penned, Mstrmnd. Such a heartfelt tribute to your dad my friend. Excellent storytelling as well. Appreciate you.

      Damian

    • Reading this I can feel how much he means to you. As a parent you want to make sure you are doing the right thing and of course we have the memories of the children growing up. But we forget we are the child as well. We have past memories further back of being raised. Hmm this is making me feel more than I thought. Very good writing.

    • Thank you..and yes he means the world to me..but Ive taken time and the cycle of life for granted..wish I had more time..thanks for commenting

    • Oh. The buildup in this. All the details and building blocks of growing up. Cherishing our memories and time.
      Time is the most reliable thing. It is ever present and we tend to push it aside. Put visits off or do a check in occasionally.
      I completely relate to this.
      My mom is 75 and doesn’t get around like she used to. This year i did all the cooking and she still felt the need to
      to be bossy! Even when we were at the grocery store! Hahaha. It’s a mother/daughter thing! Her gift to me is humor. It was always in our household.
      And love, I can feel this in your write. Even the admiration and respect you had for each other.
      This got me a little teary eyed at the end.
      God bless

      • Thank you for your comments..yeah my mom is 75 as well..older people in general have unique personalities..for sure..I try to sometimes picture life through lenses and think they feel life moves way too fast in general..and the speed everyone moves around them..but in their mind they are still young but their physical body tells a different story..I was humored yesterday..Im driving my mom around to handle stuff for my dad’s funeral..I have gps in my car..no matter how many times I said I dont need directions my mom would be like so we are gonna turn right up here or we could go up a little further..it was funny and (slightly maddening) but looking at things through her lens she never had gps or technology to assist with things growing up..and as she would say they did just fine without it..it’s good to have family and share their love and laugh at the moments that are special..thanks again for sharing your cooking and grocery shopping mom story
