Carefree
and Hassle free
Once upon
a time I lived,
A life
where I was the branch and I was the tree
Left right
and center spent pounds at the duty free,
Struggle
for a sip of lemon water
Me, my
bed, my quilt to cover
Hello waiter
“can you please fill the quarter”,
For the
little hands that touch my face
Is the
beautiful seed we have sowed up,
No morning
alarm and no more snoozes
No more
tequila shots or any boozes,
My routine
around her and her around mine
Though once
in a while I do still sip the wine,
Me on my
toes while she on her wiggle,
It is during that afternoon nap
Can’t stop
staring at her and wait for that serene snap,
I rush
in the 2 hours to finish my task
Thanks to
corona I have my bag full of colorful mask,
The clock
ticks with my heartbeat
The mind
challenging for what would be her next feast,
Little stars
and butterfly on the black chart
She knows
she needs to pee in the pot and finish her lemon tart,
I speak
she grasps
I do she
observes
I dance
she dances
I chant
she repeats
She knows
that she will be blessed when she touches the feet,
So much
to teach and so much to learn
In every
play and in every turn
I am amazed
when she shows me the way
I’m speechless
and have nothing to say,
For her
smile I have no price to pay
She remains
my favorite whether December or May,
Today morning
when I woke up
Stared my
self at the mirror for my make up,
Running between
the rooms
Searching
for the brooms,
My heart
pounced with joy and bliss
Full of
satisfaction and without a miss,
Gratitude
is a powerful word
I can’t
thank you enough God,
For when
I look down
My heart
is filled with joy and treat,
For now I know
I own these two little feet!!
