I Am Poem

by: Edna Soave

I am a stressed mom in a hurry.

I wonder why the alarm didn't go off.

I hear my children laughing.

I see mounds of toys all over the floor.

I want a beach vacation!

I am a stressed mom in a hurry.

I pretend to not be annoyed.

I feel the heat coming out of my pores.

I touch my heart to slow its beating.

I worry that I am running out of time.

I cry when I am overly stressed.

I am stressed mom in a hurry.

I understand that kids make messes.

I say how thankful I am that they are so happy.

I dream of the day when they can completely clean up after themselves.

I try to remember it’s just a phase.

I hope to find some time to relax.

I am a stressed mom in a hurry.
