Wow! This one is mind-blowing. It is so true. We have been experiencing this exact thing this week for sure. I also voted for you in the poetry contest. Best of luck!
This is very interesting. Children are gifts of life, they can help make parents forget about some worries with the joy they give. At the same time, there can be some stress that comes along with it. All in nature’s balance :’)

Interesting! Not a parent myself but I like that you didn’t go with a traditional sweet and cheery theme on this one. Seems much more realistic and deep. Gives you lots to think about!

Diffusing the Tension
I love this! Having a child with someone is wonderful but it can also be really challenging. Ultimately the little smiles make it worth it.
Jaya Avendel
The little smiles are jewels. 🙂

Kids can bring you closer or further depending on the relationship. Great poem

This is very true – I don’t have children myself but I can completely understand where this is coming from. It’s short and powerful though, I love it!

Short but clear! I am always saying – have less, but the best!
Where you are finding your inspiration?

Life. It is endless with its inspiration. 🙂
I cannot walk down the street without seeing something.

Love this! I think children can also pull parents apart for a healthy amount of family time before bringing them back together again.
Jaya Avendel
A little time apart always means the togetherness is sweeter! Thank you for sharing that thought with me!

How powerful a handful of words can be. Also crazy how the parents can pull the children apart, too. Amazing upload!

My arrival certainly didn’t bring my parents together, that much I know

It is sad that darker side of life exists but good to acknowledge it. 🙂
