Thingamabob’s A Poem by Doña Luna

Thingamabob’s

I’ll be the well

You’ll be the water

I’ll be the hot day

You’ll be the cool rain

I’ll be the Moon 🌝

You’ll be the 🌞

I’ll be the Ocean

You’ll be the Tide

I’ll be the pig

You’ll be the slop

I’ll be the bathwater

You’ll be the bubbles

I’ll be the night

You’ll be the stars

I’ll be the bed

You’ll be the sheets

I’ll be the light

You’ll be the dark

I’ll be the lollipop

You’ll do the licking

I’ll be the food

You’ll devour me

I’ll be the log

You’ll be the flames

Never-ending

This is an embellished version of a poem

requested by a poet laureate on a poet web

site I joined in 2005 , who asked me to lighten

up . My submissions were very dark , as I

was still an addict via the psychiatric modalities

and prescription medications evocation of

mental illness.

14 years at that point , over a decade wasted

grieving , I pulled this out of my soul ,

a prayer of sorts , an intention . .. She received

my poem as intended as a song , my song

thrilled her , because I sang my song

but more over , I responded to her loving

challenge . I was of course hooked , thrilled

beyond measure for my 2nd life teacher

who heard me and acknowledged my efforts

in writing .

I have always heard a completed version

sung by Natalie with the Dixie Chicks,

a band who were my voice , holding so

many life lessons in their music 🎵,

allowing me to grieve .. Of course that grief

was restrained by the medications , all

hit it waves coming to , and I am ever

Thankful for artist such as Dixie Chicks

who mirror my heart ♥️ and soul

experience united in person hood .
