Momness

By Sue-Ellen Sanders

Warning, warning, out of control

Control-freak mom who has no soul

Seeking the answers to queries in spades

Any way, shape or form, there’s info I crave…

Is she safe?

And is she content?

How are her days

And her evenings spent?

She should send me a photo

Or send me a word

Forward the punch line

To a joke she’s heard

Are the boys behaving?

Are the soccer practices tough?

Is it rainy or sunny?

I can’t know enough!

She’s away at college

So far away that I freak

A busy girl is a happy girl

It’s just been one week.
