I am blessed I am blissed to feel it still in me in you in droplets of air in …everywhere no reasons at all no sounds to speak no skin to wear no secret to bare when all of now all of me is in this one moment of you
I am blessed I am blissed to feel it still in me in you in droplets of air in …everywhere no reasons at all no sounds to speak no skin to wear no secret to bare when all of now all of me is in this one moment of you
in that one moment
when snow turns into rain
the trees smile
Nature gets ready for the Spring party
flowers, birds songs, lots of sunshine
i feel lightness in the air
after the harsh winter
rain feeds the soil and the roots
Earth fragrance is wonderful
the sun wakes up earlier and goes to sleep later
bicycles and skates are everywhere
garden preparations must start
flowers and vegetable beds
it’s time for renewing
both soul and body
in that one moment
when snow turns into rain
thank you, Nature, for the opportunity
to start over and enjoy your gifts

UNFORGETTABLE MOMENT; GIFT OF NEW LIFE
Pacing up and down the hospital corridor, I waited nervously for the doctor to call me in to the theatre.
My wife was about to give birth but the doctors had to prepare her for her cesarean section.
After what seemed like an age, a doctor finally came out and beckoned me in. A screen had been erected between me and the section to allow for some dignity for my wife but…
Written for Reena’s Prompt #264 So, here goes the prompt for this week – a phrase. in that one moment
In that one moment…
as she stood over him, her mind incoherent to ask the why then – she looked down at him one last time couldn’t comprehend the suddennessof what this meant she ran her hand down his face and dropped a gentle kiss on his forehead thinking, ironically, how this gesture was his personal signature and here she was returning to him his always loving nature
Too numb then to accept the reality of this finality, she recalls as she walked out that room rubbing her hands together repeatedly to expel the cold that had imprisoned her body completely
She walked, perhaps ran, into the open air, the sun struck harsh that treacherous day
In that moment, the day both my children were born, I found out what true love actually meant. My first child, 9lb 1, and let’s just say it hurt a bit. Although all that went away when my daughter was handed to me. We already knew the name, it was always going to be Elizabeth, yet she is more of a Lizzie now. When my son was born (9lb 10) I made sure I had all the pain relief on offer. It was much easier, and again, when he was handed to me, all the pain just melted away.
I never worried about my children, looking after them I mean. They were sturdy, not fragile in the least. I could look after them, without over thinking my role as a mum. Both adults now, I find it hard that my daughter will be thirty-two…
Giving birth was the toughest thing of my life. I was so scared during birth. All I could do was pray to almighty that everything would go well. During the C-section I felt helpless, knowing that I had no regime and that everything was depending on the doctors and the almighty.
The moment that celebrated my motherhood experience was when doctors put the baby on my chest. I felt the strongest bond in those couple of seconds. I felt the blood rushing through my veins directly into my heart and I knew now in that one moment, I was going to live for two.
The actual birth experience was extremely hard. I was in labor for 19 hours and still wasn’t able to give birth. I was losing my strength and some difficulties were coming up when the doctors finally decided to do…
in that one moment adoring me lovingly didn’t know it would end
We were good, we were gold Kinda dream that can’t be sold We were right ’til we weren’t Built a home and watched it burn
Mm, I didn’t wanna leave you I didn’t wanna lie Started to cry but then remembered I
I can buy myself flowers Write my name in the sand Talk to myself for hours Say things you don’t understand I can take myself dancing And I can hold my own hand Yeah, I can love me better than you can
Can love me better I can love me better, baby Can love me better I can love me better, baby
Paint my nails, cherry red Match the roses that you left No…
