Heartbeats Are Simple But Powerful Things
At the end of the day
we are three heartbeats
settling into sleep
in uneven rhythms.
Hand over hand over heart
it’s a simple synchronicity
that lulls me to sleep
and a certainty that
you are there
and we are here.
Soon your movements will
reverberate through
but until then I am confident
in my own pulse
echoing yours
at the end of the day.

I write poetry. I have collections too.
Love this. Gorgeous. #bigpinklink
Thank you very much.
That’s so lovely. I rarely read poetry, I should do it more often #KCACOLS
There are some wonderful poets out there 🙂
beauitful! 🙂
Thank you.
This is beautiful, you have a talent!
Thank you. I appreciate that.
This is beautiful, made me feel quite emotional! #bigpinklink
🙂 Thank you.
A poem with a lot of meaning to me, my baby had heart issues in pregnancy and I would lie awake for hours listening to my own heart hoping his was okay. Thanks for linking to #maternitymondays
I hope he was okay in the end. Thank you.
That’s so lovely 🙂
Thank you.

Oh so lovely! I think you write beautiful poetry. One of my favourites to do with motherhood is how having a child is allowing a piece of your heart to wander around independent from you, (they made it sound much better!), and this is what your poem made me think of. Thanks for linking it up with us. #bigpinklink
Thank you. I think the poem you mention sounds lovely.
That’s so lovely! There’s something quite special about that quiet time just before you fall asleep, and feeling connected to the ones you love in that moment. x #KCACOLS
It’s my favourite time of day/night. Just settling in and drifting off.
Lovely little poem, I am no good at writing poems but do love to read them! xx

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it.
Oh you clever girl – this literally stopped me – I am in awe of anyone who can write poetry – truly beautiful and so lovely to read something different amongst the mummy blogging posts #KCACOL
Thanks, glad to offer something a little different 🙂
Just beautiful. There is something truly beautiful about a heartbeat too. Very clever #BloggerClubUK
Thank you very much.
Lovely poem, I hardly ever read poetry, it’s probably something I should do more of. Thanks so much for linking up at #KCACOLS. Hope you come back next Sunday. Claire x
Thank you :0
Ahhh this is a lovely poem – thank you for sharing. I cannot remember the last time I read one!
Thank you for linking up to #KCACOLS and I hope to see you back again on Sunday
Thanks. I admit to writing much more poetry than I read these days.
So simple, yet so beautiful. The heartbeat is such an incredible thing. A steady rhythm, seemingly unimportant, yet one of the only ways you can tell one is alive. This is written so well <3 #KCACOLS
Thank you very much.
Fab poem, so well written and really lovely. Thanks for sharing it on #MarvMondays. Emily
