Poetic Thursday: Love Being You

It’s the last Poetic Thursday of January. Our friend, Pam, and her kitties, Teddy and Angel Sammy, at Two Spoiled Cats, gave us this poignant image for our inspiration for today’s poetry:

Here’s my poem:

Love Being You

I looked in the mirror and what did I see?
My young-woman-self looking back at me.

I said: “I am winter, you are spring;
we can’t know what the years will bring.”

Her whispered reply, words soft and true:
“When I grow up, I’m going to love being you.”
