Priceless by Genevieve Sturrocki awake with anxious anticipation
bordering between pleasure and pain
rushing through my morning routine
i wonder what the day will bring...
gas to spend the day with my kids: $10
lunch at the mall: $30
a few outfits for summer vacation: $330
movie and popcorn: $70
today with my kids: priceless
....the sound of their voices
still ring in my head
as i drift off to sleep
heaven can be no dearer to me
than the time i spend with my kids
06/04/2009 Author's Note: though i do not particularly love the mall, every dime, every minute was well spent....is there any greater pleasure than having kids?

I have total affinity with this. kids are a blessing and a bliss,
no matter what age or what what prank or mischief they are conceiving within themselves. |
