One less teaspoon in the drawer
one more in the garden beds
one more beneath
my children’s favourite tree.
I know this for sure
they’re not anywhere near
my beloved teapot
& searching’s become a daily chore.

Notes on Creativity
This poem began as the start of a memory story about my early motherhood days. It ran out of puff and sat in my notebook gathering dust. But poetry gave it new life and here it is.
