Caren Krutsinger Poet Rictameter

A Coat For Me

No Way
Too expensive
Buy coats for the children
I will wear mine another year
Yes, a movie star, when I tried it on
My husband talked me into it
Beauty personified
If you insist
I do

M. L. Kiser November 27, 2018 at 7:53 PM You have to treat yourself at some point; if not, will you lose the positive you who treats the children? Well penned. Caren Krutsinger November 27, 2018 at 9:58 PM You are right. It is funny how we go in spurts with the spending thing.

Michelle Faulkner November 27, 2018 at 1:27 PM I often feel guilty for buying myself something when I feel the money could be used for something more deserving - glad your hubby talked you into it! Caren Krutsinger November 27, 2018 at 2:00 PM This was 1974 and I have never forgotten it. We had a two year old and a one year old and it was a beautiful light pink car coat with white fur around the face.
