When she’s gone…

When she’s gone You won’t be able to hear her voice Feel herย  touch Smell her scent You won’t be able to sit with her and talk about your dreams and talk about your fears You won’t have another chance to hear her laughter Or all that noise in the kitchen You can’t tell her to be quiet When she sings too loud You won’t feel her presence, as she quietly sits at the end of your bed, as you sleep or slowly open your door a crack, just to get a glance of you She won’t wave at you from the front door or by the windowpane, as you back out of the driveway You won’t feel her fingers caress your arm as you walk by So take time to know her Have patience with her Spend time with her Remember as you grow older, she does too Because

Day 34, in this Pandemic..

Okay, scary-ass turbulence to be exact!   I know that all of us who have traveled, this is a common thing. We expect this once in a while, but when it does happen, you hope for it to be not so bad. Well, our turbulence made women scream and grown-ass men, groan. Like a deep scared out of their wits-didn’t-mean-to-let-my-emotions-out groan. The turbulence was so scary I had to zone out completely. This is not an easy task for a person who suffers from anxiety. As the airplane bobbled up and then down suddenly,(this happened 3xs) I put on my ear pods and my ears exploded with Bruno Mars – “Versace on the floor”. I thought that would calm me down, but it didn’t. So I changed the music to my favorite Maroon
