I’m a little late with this poem for the Word of The Day Challenge on June 20, but hope you enjoy it.
Circle of Life
From first breath
Anticipation
Mouth open
Seeking mother’s breast
Confirmation
Christmas coming
Anticipation
Gifts under the tree
Santa is on his way
Gratification
Puppy love
Anticipation
Love at first sight
Heart is broken
Devastation
Walk down the aisle
Anticipation
Love forever
Happy ever after
Excitation
Baby on the way
Anticipation
Names on a list
Which to choose
Rationalization
Future to share
Anticipation
Sharing life
A growing family
Dedication
Broken agreements
Anticipation
Heartache to come
No relief in sight
Humiliation
Alone again
Anticipation
What to do now
Where to go
Devastation
Christine Bolton
