These short stories have always been a great source of support to me & many other people, it helps us to know that our feelings are not just US but in fact many people all over the world experience the same day to day feelings and it is good to know that we aren't alone, so on those days you feel that you need a little extra boost of confidence or a boost for the day come here and read. It helps to know somewhere someone is feeling what we feel.
Welcome to Holland
A line across his hand
Heavens Special Child
*note* please dont take this poem with out permission
this is some of my writtings
Mel.
if you see me
at the supermarket,
and my child is
screaming,
rolling on the floor
with anger seeping from his pores.
please don't blame me,
I was like you once,
If you are in a restuarant
and my child
throws food and it
hits you in the face,
please, don't be angry,
I can't handle any more rage.
If you see my child
climbing over
a very tall fence
with nothing on
except his hat.
Please don't call the police,
I only looked away for a minute.
If you see me
crying, as you
pull up next to me
at a stop light.
at a busy intersection.
Honk and smile, I need a friend.
If you see me,
running down the street
with curlers in my hair
chasing a small child
who runs so fast, I can't catch him
Help me chase him down.
If my child grabs
your child, or pushes him
or bites or
kicks him, or
says words that make your hair curl.
Please forgive him, and me too.
If you happen to
see us, walking
in your neighbourhood,
or in the malls,
or at the park
Please don't turn away,
I was like you once.
