Peace, love and light. This poem is titled, “Wrappers Delight.” We were challenged in my Writing to Wellness class to write a “Pantoum” poem which is a form of poetry that has a repeated pattern in every paragraph and you will hear it as I read my poem. We also had to use gum as the metaphor for what we were going to express. The first recording of this video was during National Poetry Month but I redid it a couple of months later. Had to get it right!
During this season that we have been in with the pandemic, we have all been forced to sit still. I’ve decided to use time to reflect on life, and 2021 mark’s a decade that I’ve been a single mother.
This journey is not an easy one and I applaud those who may not be together, BUT they have found peace with one another and have come to a middle ground to be responsible co-parents with a friendship and focus on the child’s wellbeing so it just doesn’t fall on one parent.
If you like or love what you hear, I invite you to check out the rest of my website and feel free to go to the store and buy some great poetry books here.
