RADiculous no more....


Sleeping soundly thru the night
No cries of terror or tears of fright

Eating peaceful, happy meals
No crying, throwing, launching, squeals

Quiet bubble baths to take
No doors ajar; their fears at stake  

Polished dishes, teapots, vases
No broken China, throwing phases.

Walls with paintings hanging high
No holes or smears or dents, oh my!
 
TV's made for watching shows
Not gathering dust for all who knows

Bathrooms made for quiet times
Not time-in, cleanup or kiddy crimes

Bedrooms see our love come true
Not floors for sleeping, urine or pooh
 
Basements not given a second thought
No hiding stuff or getting caught

Refrigerators with food and doors
No handles missing or lying on the floor

Animals sleep in peace each night
No running or hiding or trembling in fright

The screens in my home can hold out all the bugs
Not used as a garbage shoot or to throw out dirty mugs

The closets are there to hold my nice clothes
No hiding and sneaking for candy he goes

My car smells of peach, of melon and cuc
Not dirty old clothes, rubber balls and of puke
 
But my walls would be bare, no more pictures would be
No sweet cherubs adorn them, no cute faces to see

My heart would be free to  run and to roam
No more trying to love them, to hug them, no home

My head would be empty, no noise fills its space
No ranting or raving or love taking place

Would life have a meaning outside my domain?
Was I meant for bigger ,more important ,more insane?
 
So I dropped all the things that seemed so needed
And I helped someone else who was badly mistreated

My life needs to show my Gratitude in action
For then I am practicing the law of attraction
 
So when you begrudge the smears on your walls
The tears in your couch, the holes in the halls

When their behavior bring tears to your eyes
Clouds to your brain & weight to your thighs

Remember to bend your knee to the ground
Look high to the sky and thank God that you've found

The child that was created perfectly for you
To care for, to heal and love thru and thru

That children are God's gift from above
Some bursting with joy, some hurt from NO love
 
Whichever you get, thank the Lord and have fun!
You could be the one saying "Please Lord - send a son!"
