I wish you could see the person I do
The feminine mystique
A heart that whispers
I am ready to love
A body yearning
So fragile
but ready to touch
*
Her spirit
Her essence
Her breath entwined
Thoughts that magic sprinkle
A mysterious mind
*
A beauty alluring
Complex
unique
Compelling
Universal celebration
Looking within

Menopause
Menopause is normal. The symptoms of menopause do not have to be a part of your life.

Attempting to capture light hearted take on Menopause

Please excuse me
I need to fan myself
I feel so goddam hot
But where is my fan, I need it now
it seems where i put it, I FORGOT
*
Oh dear, I think my pants have shrunk in the wash
my goodness they feel so tight
a salad a day is all i eat
I am still so bloated despite
*
My stress in high
my libido is low
my belly and chin hairs
continue to grow and grow
*
i look in the mirror
Just as I feared
I resemble my 80 year old mother
I now own 3 chin hairs, it’s my very own a beard
*
I no longer ovulate
My eggs have up and flown
My periods are heavy
I have low progesterone
*
My estrogen is low
My lady bits are dry
Having sex is painful
I try to not to cry
*
i get so weepy
I’m always sleepy
my family say I’m bitchy
My skin is itchy
*
Who are these kids
Mine?
Ive forgotten their names
John
Joe, Jesse
Jimmy
oops I mean oh its James
*
Why is this happening
what is the cause
My doctor says you are normal Dear
it is “ONLY” menopause
*
*
YES it is normal. It is the natural advancement in a woman’s life.
*
Do you have to experience and live with the symptoms of menopause
*
No!
Transition
From her tippy toes to the top of her head
Warmth rising
Flushing her cheeks
To a glorious rosy red
*
Giddiness, joy, elation
Her head did spin
Was it the champagne
Or daily life intoxication
*
A beautiful memory
A face looking at her
Feeling nostalgic
oh dear how young we were
*
Her life of spectacular moments
Tells story upon her beautiful face
Softness, fine lines
Charming, full of grace
*
Youth lays behind
Only in time
Keep dreaming of that life
Passion keeps you in prime
*
A turning point
A time of transition
A time in life
A new definition
*
From light to dark
She will shine inside
It’s grey, Imperfect
Move effortlessly through to the other side
*
Wisdom and experience
As she enters a new phase
Elegance, truth and love
She will continue to navigate life’s maze
*
Welcome to middle age a time of transition. It doesn’t have to be a time of darkness. Stay in the light 💋💋💋
That life inside of you ❤️
To my fellow middle aged mums, do you remember this moment. Those beautiful moments of feeling your baby move. Knowing you are growing a precious life inside you. This little human is part of you, is you and is now your life. Your world. My children are now 23 and 21. They are still my world, my life, my everything’s. Who else still feels like this?

Did you feel me move
I’m playing in your tummy
I am coming very soon
I can’t wait to meet you mummy
*
Daddy lay your hands on me
Gently touch mummy’s tummy
I will be your most precious human
irreplaceable, no amount of money
*
I’m coming into your world
I’ll be here very soon
I’ll shine brighter than all the stars
More brilliant than the fullest moon
*
Nine months inside your body
I’ve listened to your heartbeat
dear mummy, one day soon
We are really going to meet
*
I picked myself a mummy
I picked myself a daddy
I found two people to comfort me,
Wipe my button nose, when it’s runny
*
I will be your adored little girl
No longer just a dream
You will look at me with love
Gentle words and eyes agleam
*
I cannot wait to see your face
I cannot wait to feel your touch
Swaddle me with your love
There will never be too much
*
What color will my eyes be
Blue, brown, or green
I’m going to have the prettiest eyes
That you both have ever seen
*
Do you promise to kiss me every night
on my perfect lips and nose,
Do you promise to play with me,
count my little fingers and toes
*
This little piggy,
Daddy can we play
Be by my side always
Never go away
*
I want to have bubble baths
I want to cuddle a teddy bear
but most of all I just want
my mum and dad to always be there
*
Teach me about this thing called life
I want to do everything
Good,
wondrous
learn from all the strife
*
Teach me how to count
Teach me how to cook
Teach me the alphabet
And how to read a book
*
Lets pick flowers
Cuddle for hours
Teach me kindness
So my morals are the finest
*
Teach me to be like you two
*
We will run in puddles
Play in the rain
Eat ice cream
Again and again
*
I have so much to look forward to
I love you both so much
My best day is yet to come
When I feel your loving touch
💗💗💗💗
Fabulous at 40, 50 and beyond
