I just remembered that last night S13 told H about a poem I had written a while back. H asked me to send it to him. (I wrote this when I was starting to get my life back...I wanted my kids to know that there ARE things that I like)

Here is it:

I Like Cotton


I like cotton, I like cilantro.
I like pansies, I like the beach.
I like my happy children playing, I like running a couple miles.
I like Trig and Calculus, I like Beethoven and Bach.
I like Merlot. I like Stella; I like water and Diet Coke.
I like lobster and salad, I like milk and cookies.

I like kittens and I like the rain.
I like when it thunders. I just like when it rains.
I like fireflies, I like little frogs.
I like making trees grow, and grass and plants.
I like how flowers surprise me when they come back each year.

I like fresh scented candles, I like soft lights.
I like deep blue skies. I like soft body spray.
I like fountains, I like my porch.
I like wind chimes, I like spring.
I like my curtains to dance.
I like fresh cotton sheets…..I like how things feel.
