It’s been an
interesting couple of weeks for me. We had a family Halloween party the last
weekend in October at “The Farm.” That’s what my husband calls the house that
we’ll be moving to at some time in the future. My daughter, son-in-law, and granddaughter
have already been living there for two months now.
My husband
and I have plans to have some renovations done on our new living quarters
before we move in. One thing that is a must—having a wall of bookshelves built
in our upstairs office/den. I have thousands of children’s books that I don’t
want to sell or give away. I want to keep them for my granddaughter Julia. She LOVES Books!
Last week,
we had to batten down the hatches in preparation for Hurricane Sandy.
Fortunately, the storm didn’t hit my area too hard. This week we had a nor’easter.
We got snow here on Wednesday night. The weather is looking up here for the
long weekend ahead.
I’ve been so
busy taking care of Julia and with our renovations plans that I’ve found little
time to blog or write poetry. I did, however, write a poem “in my head” a few
weeks ago when I was taking Julia for a walk to a nearby park on a beautiful
autumn day. Here it is:
Night
Sang the sun
a lullaby
And sprinkled
stars across the sky
And lit the moon
And made it
shine
Into this
little room of mine.
