Nice poem

I know the feeling very well.

That was lovely.

Ahhh..a poem after my own heart.Knows this crazy phase very well,its an interesting phase of life.

Strange–only those who experience, I imagine-can relate. It all seem mystical and magical to me–like some natural elation overcoming the whole being–making it something different and complete! Still–like all things, events–it is short-lived, too! Hotspots will again appear on the oasis–if you know what I mean! Cool! Sorry! Seriously!

I don’t think you are deranged, I think this feeling can hit us at any age and you’ve expressed it beautifully (one of my favourite albums too by the way).

Great poem, Katie. Perhaps every husband should have a copy of this!

Great write~~~

Well written. That’s the difference if you know writing, it doesn’t leaves one being eaten up by the emotions but allow the emotions to write the lines of poetry.

hormones out of balance.. really a problem.. nice piece riz

A very entertaining and vivid description of that most difficult phase of womanhood.

Entertaining?!! You think my tears and fears are entertaining! Let me tell you something Mr. Muse…. Whoops! There go those hormones again.

I feel as if I have just been let in on a secret. My knowledge of women has risen 50% thanks to this poem.

well written…and yes, my husband and family will read it too!

I loved the article intro – menopausally deranged – LoL. The content though was very eloquently written. Told so well. I thought this was terrific. Thanks for contributing to the challenge again, and thanks for the nouns suggestions too.

Well explained–it leaves you with a warm feeling or is that a hot flush?

So your going to blame this on a hormone imbalance? Just kidding wonderful write about something I knew nothing of before and a little more of now. thanks for sharing and I assure you when your sobbing, crying or complaining we are all still caring!

Very strong emotions, a wonderful write.

Wonderfully well written. Experienced just this kind of craziness twice in pregnancy, this next phase I know is fast approaching – I’m gonna keep this poem in readiness!
