This Year
This year my granddaughter played football.
The high school coach tried to recruit her.
She is debating now football or cheerleading.
This year I was assigned to two school buildings
Which was insane as school counselors
Are in a school to build relationships.
This year my dog began to sleep more.
Sophie Helen, what is going on?
Is nine so much older than ten then?
This year I wrote over a thousand poems.
And I stopped painting photos.
Because my house is filled to the brim with them.
This year has been wonderful in so many ways.
I have been blessed with good health
Following on the heels of really bad health.
I am looking forward to 2020.
Whatever comes, comes.
My enthusiasm is willing and my spirit is
Dancing toward the 2019 finish line.
