I like how this poem takes mom-guilt over taking time to write poetry to its ultimate and very illogical conclusion! Everything would be perfect if we didn’t take a few moments here and there to slow down, notice things and write poetry…I never knew my poetry habit was keeping my children from cheerfully eating kale! 😆
Love this Renee! Beautiful and full—not of wonder but wondering— the way the poem buries impossible idealism for the embraced exchange of a resurrected taco!
LOVED IT!
If I had not been writing the poem ……. I would have written the book you would have never read…..so instead I wrote you this email you may never get. ;0) and all because you wrote the poem!
This made me smile - and then laugh - and then laugh out loud - and then marvel that although I live on the other side of the world, this is me. Thank you!

Oh. My gosh. Can we be friends?! Thank you so much, Renee.
Of course!
Tacos every night!!

This is the best thing I have read all week. I wish I wrote it.
Or had written it... Or ... 😉
Excellent!

I love this, Renae!
I loved this so much!
Amazing!
If I hadn't been writing the poem........ I wouldn't have let the rice burn on the stove. Again.
And so many other things :-) Thank you Renee.
I feel so seen.🩷 thank you.
What a great way to start my day!
Love this.
I am so glad to be introduced to this author and poet. What a fantastic bit of writing.
So beautifully true...wish I had written it myself, but I was doing laundry...
