Life Events

Hello Poetry Friday Friends!  It’s been a while since I’ve posted. “Where have I been?” you may be wondering. Well, on October 4, 2020, I was married!  I’ve also been busy with my new husband as he’s been merging his household with mine. Wow!  What a lot of work!  Now between the two of us, we have three college students living at home with us!  We couldn’t be happier, though!  Here are some highlights from our beautiful wedding day. 



My parents walked me down the aisle. 


Mark’s son, Jacob was his best man. 




My daughters were my maids of honor. 

    My beautiful daughters, Sarah and Sienna 


 

Amy and Mark





And now onto Poetry Friday. Today I celebrated a big life event by sharing my news of my marriage and now I’d like to share a poem about a small life event that used to happen about every week. 

Coffee at Grabdma’s

Percolator coffee pot 
makes the coffee
nice and hot
Gather round 
Grandma’s kitchen table
catch up on as much chat 
as we are able

Aunt Lou comes down 
from her upstairs apartment 
to join the coffee klatch
Eat a grilled muffin
or one of Grandma’s 
recently baked treats

What’s been going on?
Who’s been doing what?
How have you been feeling?
When’s the next family dinner?
We’ll see you next week 
for our next coffee break

Gather round 
Grandma’s kitchen table
catch up on as much chat 
as we are able 
Percolator coffee pot 
makes the coffee 
nice and hot. 

Today’s Poetry Friday Roundup is being hosted by Linda over at Teacher Dance
