No Perfect Place

Posted on April 17, 2020 by

Being an “essential” worker
I’m glad I go to work each day
It does me good to distance
From my other half who’s home to stay

A trek to Niagara Falls
Or Grand Canyon would be that…Grand!
I’m tired when I return at night
To find things undone….Oh the sight!

Foggy harbors here … and there
The aura in my eyes won’t clear enough
I need more than a wishing well
This fading antique rose is fragile …do not touch!

Linking up with Linda Kruschke Paint Chip Poetry the theme is ‘pilgrimage’ and the words are foggy harbor, Grand Canyon, Niagara Falls, antique rose,  aura, wishing well and dewdrop. Used all but one.  Went light and humorous, sort of, while sorting out this pandemic.

 

About Mary (tqhousecat)

I am a wife and a mother of two grown children. I love Jesus and sharing my faith through written words. I currently have a poetry blog and also write on medium.com. My main focus is hope in Christ. I only wish that whoever reads this will be blessed, inspired and occasionally amused.

    Fun write with a twist of angst. I like it.
