Hi!
“Today, we’d like to challenge you to write a poem about something mysterious and spooky!”
Not one to deny the NaPoWriMo gods their fun, I came up with this wee ditty:
It’s eerily quiet
The playroom’s awash
With the sound of their nothing
And tidiness – gosh!
One of the last schoolday cuddles of them being 8 and 5!
There’s none of the bickering/
Playing the fool
I do believe…
…what’s that…?
They’ve gone back to school?!!
Two weeks have gone by rather quickly, all in all, and I will be walking our boys down the road on Monday a ‘whole year’ older (and with a few sad little hugs along the way, no doubt). They are getting so BIG and, although it is rather full-on parenting 12+ hours every day for two weeks, the house will indeed be ghostly without them.
They will be off again on the 19th and 22nd for Easter, mind you – and so will hubby! 😉
I’ll see YOU here tomorrow, as it also marks the end of the second week of Glo/NaPoWriMo! Exciting!
