just in case you were wondering, this should make it clear as mud
Who is she, really? Stalking, posting, editing in flourishes, reading, running, playing, flirting, kissing boo boos and easing children's woes, angsting, pontificating, MATURating, teaching lessons in animal behaviour and Portuguese -- just another day catapulting through life.
Ha! I feel so much more enlightened about you now, KL! I didn't know that you taught Portuguese - I learned a bit of it before I went to visit Brazil, but I barely remember any of it now.
As Madalyn said below, I think my favorite part is the MATURating reference! I also noticed your spelling of "behaviour," which is the British spelling, if I'm not mistaken? I might have commented on that in one of your other poems, too.
My other favorite line in this is "catapulting through life." What an apt description; it really does feel that way sometimes, doesn't it?
You know, I must comment on something else...this rating system. Often, it's really hard for me to decide how to "rate" a poem (if I do so at all). I tend to rate highly, especially if I really do like it, but at the same time, what makes a difference between a "100" poem and, say, a "20" poem? I guess that's very subjective.

I thought people should know that marathon running supermoms really do teach lessons and talk on the radio while working full time training and caring for animals and posting poems online.

I'm sure you're that and so much more than you give yourself credit for...

And if I actually wrote all my experience out on a CV, people think I am either bullsh*tting or just plain nuts. I am over educated and have dabbled in everything, including overhauling jet engines at a gas
pipeline company, lol.
