Day 14, Black History, Love Day

February 14, 2009

Ahhh Love Day!

Being married more work than any happily ever after tale. It takes work!

There are times when I play my music and I just dream of the Mister and how much I love him. Then there are songs (Bust Your Window by Jazmine Sullivan comes to mind) when I have to fly to the bathroom (my make do prayer room) and pray away the hard feelings.

As I type this, I’m feeling like Nikki Giovanni in the poem:

I Wrote A Good Omelet

I wrote a good omelet…and ate a hot poem…
after loving you
Buttoned my car…and drove my coat home…in the rain…
after loving you
I goed on red…and stopped on green….floating somewhere in between…
being here and being there…
after loving you
I rolled my bed…turned down my hair…slightly confused but…I don’t care…
Laid out my teeth…and gargled my gown…then I stood…and laid me down…
to sleep…after loving you

Nikki Giovanni is a renowned poet whose writings were based on civil rights and women’s liberation. Her race, as well as her childhood and her womanhood, inspire much of her work. Giovanni has received many awards, and has been honored many times for her pieces.

To the Mister:

I Love You.
