Essential Ingredients

About this book

Parenthood is a journey with no roadmap, and it is the children who most often steer the ship. There are times in a parent's life when they ask, "Why am I doing this? It's so hard…" That is, until the moment of magic happen—and they always do. In Essential Ingredients, Carol Rose GoldenEagle recalls when Creator's blessings have truly been bestowed in a parent's shared life with their children. These poems examine hardship and struggle, the triumph of spirit and joy, and serve as a reminder to all parents that childhood is fleeting.

SHOPPING CART
I remember the day
you grab boxes of Fruit Loops Lucky Charms Alpha-Bits
saying this is what you want for breakfast
meanie me
make you put them back except for the Fruit Loops
I put some Shreddies oatmeal other whole wheat grains in the cart
where your brother is already sitting
enjoying the ride down the aisles
we load up on fresh beef chicken salmon vegetables
y’all want Pizza Pops I say no
at the check out
strategically placed
are the chocolate bars gum candy
I say yes to at least one or two
it’s what Moms do
as I get to the checkout I notice a young woman in the line
behind me
sparse order she needs
a salad a can of soup a baguette
her order
reminds me of what I have already got
you
I let you pick a pop for the ride home
some chocolate
even though I say you are only supposed to enjoy one
once a week at most never two
today more than 20 years later I am at the check out in the grocery
again few items in my cart
it is only me now
there is another young woman in front of me
with a sparse order again of mostly healthy food
in these moments
I am reminded of...
