Impromptu Visit

My daughter called just to say,

“Hey, Mom. How was your day?”

It was nice to hear her voice,

then I got the better choice…

A surprise, a visit, she came over!

I looked outside for the four-leaf clover!

We ate and talked and shared our day;

she listened to me read the way…

I will tomorrow during read aloud time.

She gave me a compliment about story, rhyme,

and voice.

If I had a choice…

She’d still be here.

But I know that’s not true, because I see,

she’s turning into the woman I wished her to be.

I let her go, then wrote this post and said,

“Goodnight” to the rest of the family. Time for bed!
