"A little of Me"

A few years ago,
I had a thought like a bird,
I had a bit of the little me,
I had a lot of naughty smiles.

Now, I am just a little of Me,
I care, I am soft, I am slow,
I bring up a life within,
The other little of Me.

Uncertainty and nervousness,
Joy and fear,
A feeling unfelt,
A new strength of protection!

I am blessed to be a lady.

"Ancient"

A word heard a long ago,

A few thoughts emerged a long ago,

A few dreams were dreamt a long ago,

All but ancient history.

Knew not I factors of today,

Knew not I of change-a must today,

Mind set restless at boundaries,

Some peace of solitude yet achieved.
