I am a poet. Yes I am. Have you read my first attempt at poetry? Please read it first before proceeding. It would only take a minute. Yes. One minute...or less if you're a fast reader.

Welcome back. Now you know what kind of a poet I am. So, when Janice over at Mommy's Lounge, who has a weekly link up for poets every week, actually came up with a template for poets like me, I was super excited. I really thought that with a template I can finally reveal the true poet in me. Boy, was I wrong. I couldn't even write a poem with a template. Here's the template to the prompt Motherhood...
Motherhood is like ________________ in _______________.
It ________________ and __________________,
and _________________________.
Nothing compares to ____________________
or ___________________,
because _____________________.
I am so thankful for __________________
and the way ______________________.
I love it when ____________________
because _____________________.
Motherhood truly is ___________________
when _______________________,
and everytime ________________.
I would’t trade this title for anything!
I cheated. I have skipped a few lines and a few blanks here and there because I am a special kind of poet. And here's what I came up with...
Motherhood is like nothing else in the world.
It is something you can never prepare for and almost always,
exceeds your expectations.
Nothing compares to holding a child in your arms,
and knowing that he is borne of the love
between you and your husband.
I am so thankful for Motherhood
and the way it has changed my life.
I love the way it has changed Me
because I am a better person now.
Motherhood truly is a blessing
like no other.
I would’t trade this title for anything!
Yes I am a poet. A special one.
Go ahead and try the template and don't forget to link up with Janice!
