Tonight's Thoughts

I don't consider myself a poet,
I just write what comes into my head.
Choppy little sentences
Lazy with grammar
I wonder if I talk this way as well.
One sentence can take so long to construct
And a paragraph, hours,
But little words just put together
Give me just what I like
A little of this and a little of that.
Tonight though,
My thoughts are filled with things too big
To split up too little
And so I will leave them alone
Until tomorrow.

  1. Little did you know what the night would bring to you and to Tom. Such a big thing to experience - and on the eve of your birthday. But God will give you some little words to put together that will be part of your grief and your wholeness. So, please share them with us so that we, too, can learn to process the unexpected things that can happen all in 1 night.
