Today with the Royal Wedding there will be much pomp and celebration. Lot’s of detail, fuss and rushing about.
Today’s guestpost from Ipshita Chatterjee of Minor Edition is in start contrast to this, being beautiful in it’s simplicity. A poem for her daughter.
To my daughter Mini Edition
My darling gorgeous Mini,
What do I write about you?
That
You are my sunshine on a freezing day
You de-stress me with your endless giggle
You are the strength that makes my tiny home a castle
Your energy fills the house with happiness
You have been my
Inspiration that helped me start my business
Last week you surprised me
When I asked you
If you could give away some of your toys for the charity shop
You picked up some of your favourite teddies and said
You will give them away
We did indeed pack away a lot of toys and donated them later
And your face was lit with joy
I didn’t expect that!
I am proud of you
When you were seriously ill during Christmas,
I realised that nothing else is more important than
You
No amount of money or fame will make me happier than
Being with you
I may be
Tired sometimes and get angry at times
Sad (sometimes) that I have given up a few things I used to do before you were born
But
Please know
I love you and will always have the time and patience for you
