This Mess On My Head-a poem + no post next week

This Mess On My Head, a poem by Jenna Terese

 

There’s this mess on top of my head

And when I get up out of bed

It’s all frizzy and fluff

And that kind of stuff

This mess on top of my head

 

And this mess on top of my head

Though taming it all I do dread

There are some good days

Sometimes when it lays

Just right, on top of my head

 

On top of my head there are curls

And around and around they do twirl

Too many to count

No reason to pout

About the mess that I call all my curls

 

Though some hair days can be quite bad

And though I could get very mad

It’s what I was given

From Him up in heaven

So I’ll love this mess on my head

***

 

Just letting you all know that I won’t be posting next week. The reason being…I’M GOING TO THE REALM MAKERS WRITERS CONFERENCE! (If you don’t know what that that is, check it out here) I am inhumanly excited and can’t wait to meet authors, writers, and BUY BOOKS! 😀 Quite honestly, things are just going to be too busy for me to write a coherent blog post, but the Saturday after Realm Makers weekend (July 28th), you can expect a thorough post (with pics!) about my adventure at Realm Makers. 🙂

 

 

Write on,

 

Let’s chat in the comments! Are you a dedicated poet, or just write an occasional poem, like me? Are you going to Realm Makers too, or another writers conference this year?

    I’ve dabbled in poetry, but never been particularly good at it. Also, WHAT YOU’RE GOING TO REALM MAKERS?????? *all Australians die quietly of jealousy* 😀

    Oh my word, I loved this. XD

    And EEK REALM MAKERS. I will go one day. One day when I have lots of money. (I say as I continue life as an author which isn’t likely to get me lots of money *dies*)

    I liked how your poem addressed something that seems so trivial, but still is important because we can honor God through contentment. That was great 🙂

    And, to answer your questions, I only write poems occasionally, and even then they’re free verse and not very structured.

    Have fun at Realm Makers 😀

      Thank you! Yes, I used to really dislike my hair, but now I’m learning how to be content and even love what God’s given me. 😉
      I like free verse poems. 🙂
