a monthly poetry blog

Poetry

Wonderfully weird and entirely visceral, poetry is my passion. I write as often as I can (usually monthly), taking local classes and honing my craft.

my only wish

i don't mind if you have curly locks of gold
i only wish for your hand to curl around my own
the colour of your eyes could be any hue
i only pray they light the way when they see mine
you could be funny and sly, or bookish and shy
i only hope you share your gifts with me
maybe you'll run fast, or watch the clouds roll by
i only want to experience it all with you
because when you're here, my sweet boy
i only wish to be the mom you deserve
