D.I.S.T.R.A.C.T.I.O.N.
An Acrostic Poem by Jackie Barrows
Didn’t know how long it would last…
I was just passing the time.
Sitting and daydreaming all the while,
Thinking about anything and everything but what’s there
Right in front of me, before my very eyes.
All the world passes by, impatient and angry as ever.
Could it stop for one blissful moment? (I’m exhausted.)
This hustle and bustle is too much.
I can’t keep up, but I’ll continue to try.
Onward I go,
No stopping now.

A Silent Symphony: The Unspoken Bond with My Mom
A Silent Symphony: The Enduring Harmony of My Bond with Mom In the quiet moments shared with my mom, a profound connection blooms, rendering words unnecessary. There exists between us a symphony of emotions—a silent understanding that transcends the confines of language. When we're together, a serene tranquility envelops us, and I am filled with a sense of peace and belonging.
