A week full of writing
Wasn’t that exhausting
Still, the fun wasn’t tiring
That’s what I’m sharing
If we were having coffee

Treasures we dug together
Shared with each other

Resources we cherish forever
True life saver they were

Map to keep us on path
Distributed with faith

Mundane or important, a day
Worthy of a say

And sent a letter
That someone deserved

A guest of honor
Interviewed with manner

Coffee to share with fond
Adieu to the festival of words.

I am participating in the 7-day Festival of Words hosted by Write Tribe. Day 7 prompt is ‘If we were having coffee’.

Today my son’s school reopened after the summer holidays. Two months and twelve days – that’s how long the holidays were. It felt strange to be at home without him today, for both his little brother and I.

I was trying hard to remember my routine from two months ago. My ten-month-old has changed his schedule since then. Plus the move to a new apartment just two days ago has changed the feel of everything.

Once again, it’s time to make new routines. To settle into new routines.

Here’s a poem I wrote for my son on his new beginning as a second grader.

Goodbye, mindless surfing and sleeping in
Welcome, lessons and homework
And a lot of playtimes
Another school year is here
Your days are busy once again
Learn Math and English, sure,
Don’t forget to make friends new
Learn to fight and share
Make memories plenty
To miss these moments later
Go on, enjoy the days of fun.

Dear to me the most
In my family I trust
Treasure I hold close

Treasure I hold close
In my family I seek
Love and warmth I crave

Love and warmth I crave
In my family I find
My dearest treasure.
