Poetry: Young Widow's Lament

Young Widow's Lament

© 2011 by A. Dameron 

 

Twelve hours

all we had

a lifetime's worth of minutes

an eternity's worth of memories.

Twelve hours

from

"husband and wife"

to

"till death do us part"

14 Years and Counting

Today, 10/11/10 marks 14 years that I've been married to Hubby. If you count dating, I've known him for closer to 18 1/2. Time definitely flies.

In 14 years:

Moved twice.
Switched careers from teaching to writing/art
dealt with depression and low self-esteem
had 3 kids
had 2 of those 3 kids diagnosed with autism, sensory issues and other problems
learned quickly how to deal with teachers, therapists, doctors, etc. etc.
reached out to others with similar issues (mum friends w/special needs kids, other writers and artists)
discovered FaceBook and Twitter friends
expanded my writing repertoire and experimented w/creative art
did a family geneology; struggled with the discovery of issues because of that
got back to my first love: languages and linguistics
dealt with power, trust and money issues within my marriage (still in progress)

What a different life I have now, as opposed to 14 years ago!
