Its For Keeps : Adult Poetry

written by Poet : Paul McCann


It was Mothers Day and the kids were bringing their Mum breakfast in bed .To help my wife I thought I'd clean up around the house .
Best plans were laid . There were bags and boxes of stuff
piles of things , lying around in heaps  Old bunk beds and a garage filled with junk . It's amazing what one keeps . Hoards of trash and treasure like old cracked china plates with the odd chipped cup .  Unwanted toys and teddy bears .
Broken things that I'll never fix up .
Things I'm sure that will never be used ,like old books and a broken doll . Then I found old photos and started remembering when the kids were small But I thought this stuff has a place ,
it's all  the things that have been our life . So I put it all back and wished a happy Mothers Day to my wife .   By Paul McCann
