I lost some
things important,
When I was still
quite young...
And though I
searched to find them,
I gave up,
called it done.
Instead I felt
caught up in pace,
My life like die
was cast...
Those things I
lost were truly gone,
Forgotten in the
past.
The years flew
by as I worked hard,
To raise my
kids, my lot...
Yet now and
then, I felt a pang,
For what it was
I'd sought.
And when last
diaper disappeared,
Was washed and
put away...
I finally found
just what it was...
That I had lost
that day.
For in plain
sight, I saw once more,
The dream
of fame I'd had...
Replaced by
motherhood for years,
A contrast
sweet yet sad.
A chance once
more to share with all,
The dreams I
resurrect...
Each picture now, I strive to
paint,
Through words that I
inject.
