Week 4 of the Weekly Parenting Poetry Workshop by Lauren Wayne of Hobo Mama.
The theme of this week is Trust.
Trust
to let go of you
each day
each milestone
to believe
to know
to be thankful
you are your own person
on your own
journey
I am only
your guide
your mentor
your safety net
your parent
I will be here
for you

so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteTruly.
I love your formatting too.
I feel like I travel the journey of your poem as well.
And the "girly bird" is its own poem.
"I am only your guide..."
ReplyDeleteHow important that role is!! Love this journey through your poem.
"to let go of you" — This tender yet inexorable growth through parenthood. Such a beautiful poem, and the bird who will spread her wings fits perfectly. Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI really like how you set "journey" aside, like it really is her own!
