Motherhood
When a slap brings joy
A voice cries out
Newborn girl, boy
Angels in Heaven shout
A voice cries out
Happy tears flow
Angels in Heaven shout
Trumpets in Glory blow
Happy tears flow
Breast milk fed
Trumpets in Glory blow
Gentle strokes to the head
Breast milk fed
Forever to enjoy
Gentle strokes to the head
When a slap brings joy

Slap-Dash
I’m a slap-dash person;
That is just the way I roll,
For when I start a project,
Ending quickly is my goal.
I rarely measure things; instead
I look and take a guess,
So underneath each picture hung,
The wall’s a hole-filled mess.
Today I fixed a cabinet
Which needed to be spruced.
I’d ordered paint and liners
For the shelves to give a boost.
I emptied

The slap with its origin
Going ahead walking through the cold,
hearing "you got this" from someone who got told,
to tell me this to tell me that,
maybe because I didn't allow someone to let out a pat.
On the shoulder never.
I never forget to take a jacket with me,
but when he started to be all I see,
even though

I Slap My Wrist
We wait for news of the sale of our house,
our home. Weeks pass. Unsettled. Unable
to focus on anything else. All seems
temporary; provisional or not relevant.
I call to mind patients needing patience;
waiting for results. Not knowing. Tested.
Trust tested explores hope, rehearsing what ifs.
Whatever news comes, knowing brings relief.
Decisions can be made. Actions follow.
In writing

A Planned Slap Rondelet
A pre planned slap,
when the beast breaks the chains beware;
A pre planned slap,
deeper wound falling for a trap;
It’s the charge you feel in the air
with sharpened nails it will ensnare;

A Slap Happy Pappy
Twenty thousand three hundred days
That's a humongous amount of days
But it's not a family record
One sister lived 30,310,10 as of today
Guess you could say I'm a contented person
With more than my share of happy
Why me? I have often asked
How come I'm a slap happy pappy
Is it just a roll of the dice
That determines which path

What Frustration Could Do
"Who had this booby trap set?"
Asked the hit man quite upset
But flashing a borrowed smile
He could take to some one mile.
Later, what seemed a child's grin,
Once very rich, now as thin...
It's clear Charles would some cheek slap
Or a head hit or a cap:
Charles' little luck with good clue
Could him to a lone spot glue,
Each movement

With a Single Slap
With a single slap
It started with a single slap
Back then during courtship
And I vowed I was going to leave him
He begged so much it became embarrassing
“Baby I am sorry,” he pleaded
“I will never lift a finger to hit you again,” he vowed
His friends begged claiming it was work pressure
What could I do? I loved

Slap Leather
A new sheriff in town named Shaw
Came to get rid of an outlaw
They would slap leather soon
Around the time of noon
Sheriff was faster on the draw!
