A caregiver and fixer
Of our own mistakes....

Caregiver, full of love.
Heart on her sleeve.
Exudes optimism.
Robust disposition.
Yearns to learn.

Time heals and destroys;
such a suttle of caregiver
brings forgetfulness
demonically toxic
 paradoxical monster.

how much farther?
are we there yet?
novice caregiver heard giggling
probably the old hag at the end
spying on the family 
she should have retired years ago
no sense of humor thought hag...

When pets start acting out of character
Different to their normal routine as their caregiver
Sends out a signal
You're in a pickle
A visit to the vet is definitely in the picture...

I am sitting 
In my electric wheelchair
Attached to the oxygen tank
In the old age home
Thinking about sex

I think 
Therefore I still am 
And maybe 
Just maybe 
With God’s help
I’ll get lucky...

Mental illness has its challenges
With daily ups and downs of
Dealing with their issues 
But the most important thing
Is to protect your mental health
Because you come first...

Living on the river is fine if she will deliver
Most of the time she is a benevolent caregiver
But she has her abrupt fits of anger and frustration
Resulting in a sudden, sodden over hydration
But that suits me just fine and I will always forgive her...

Mother


  Most splendoured caregiver
        Main pillar of support
  Million mouths crave her meals
         Martyrs life if need be
  Measure of love so large
        Makes one feel very tall
   Mortal version of God!

Coming and going as a cloud,

My sweet,

Down pouring-

When I am in thirst,

You are the wind,hugging me when it sweats,

Again tying me up with Sun rays,when it's cold,

In a world no one to take care,yes, where? no other,

You are the caregiver for me like a mother!...

What do you want to be, little boy?
   I want to be caring and giving  

No, no, no: WHAT do you want to be?
You  know, like a pilot or something 
   I already told you: caring and giving...

Yes, all of us have to make a living
   But this child's answer I'm hereby forgiving...

I had a dog.  It did not behave.
I took it back to the shelter.
I got a cat.
It hissed at me.
I kicked it out.
Dumped it in the country.
Not caring it was pregnant.
We tried to have a child for four years.
Took in a foster child, but it ran away.
Twice.
We are trying to adopt now....

My grandpa was a drinking man
he never lost a dealer’s hand
	we hired a caregiver
	to tend his bad liver
from bottle and table he’s banned

He tried to sneak drink and a game
and was feeling the stare of fame
	drew a royal flush
	his liver turned to mush
his game will never be the same...

No one understands,
All except you,
My love, and bestfriend,
Who my heart belongs to. 

You are my caregiver.
You are my strength.
The light in my day, 
And the moon in my wake.

I promise you infinity
I’ll give you all of me,
I am the chest,
You are my key

I’m deeply in love with you
Your why my skies are blue...

Reprogramming my mind.
No longer a caregiver, 
from now on I shall be overseer. 
My words the whip,
these daily tasks a cotton field 
of sorts. This child shall feel
calluses on his hands 
as he pushes himself 
from a lowly existence and 
pursues happiness like a 
homeless man who missed it. 
From embryo to prince, 
from idea to fruition, boy to man, 
he is my mission....

I watched my sister fading away.
She did as she was told
Day after miserable day.
Do this, don't do that,
It's bad for you, good for you,
Mustn't get fat.
Could Nurse Ratched not see 
The harm that she caused?
The pain she inflicted
Gave me pause. 
Play by the rules,
Sound advice for some fools,
But not for this one.
I make my own laws,
Simply because
I have no wish 
To live forever....

My husband is having his second total hip joint replacement tomorrow, February 6, 2018. He is wanting to get it done so he will be healed in time to get his garden going. We need  your prayers again for his healing for me to hold it together while I look after him. It is not easy on him and it is not easy on me as the caregiver. 

Thanking you ahead of the prayers for the prayers.

Black coffee for sunny mornings and hangovers,
or with the rich cream of a female ungulate caregiver.
A quick Danish for the tardy to arrive,
crispy bacon for first responders.
Duck fat in the skillet fry’s anything better -
let’s it slide off a plate.
Wipe tongues with Oolong,
Be sure to keep a store of nuts and berries.
Chocolates and red wine restores blasé taste buds.
Keep writing love menus....

She cares for butterflies, birds, grasshoppers and a curly tailed squirrel.
Watches the ground as storms come unleashed and danger unfurl.
She is caregiver to the produce, animals, and components of the forest.
Her compassion, strength and loveliness is spread out before us.
She is the willow, the oak, the elm, the hickory, the hemlock too.
She stands by us season after season, for it is what a goddess would do....

No amount
of self-sought
fury will bring
back the glory
of innocence.

Well,
I've never
been innocent.

And so,
there is
nothing left
to do but
seek.

What's lost
is found,

and what's
found is
never good
enough.

So I guess you
better work
harder at washing
their blood off of 
your
hands—

and the blood
they spilt in an
attempt to taint
you.

Yet here 
I stand:
unmoved, 
and untainted.
