#1 - New Year's Baby by Linda FullerThe new year came home from the hospital today.
Its face is all red and squashed looking -
I’m afraid I won’t be able to love it,
and it’s not getting anywhere near my nipples.
01/01/2011 Author's Note: I'm already regretting the Poem-a-Day January 2011 challenge I made to myself.

Posted by Shonda Creemer on 01/02/11 at 05:28 AM HA! This is great Linda. And the challenge...as challenging as it may be or become...will be very rewarding. I decided on my last BD (February 16th) to photo journal my next year of life. I have taken a photo a day for the last 10 months. I will be glad when my next BD gets here. LOL!!! Funny write. I look forward to whatever else January will bring you. HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! |
