Ah I loved this Lauren and I am so happy you are sharing your poetry. I loved what you said about the bliss and rawness, how everything exists together. I can absolutely envisage your poetry book and have already pre-ordered it in my mind…! xx
Thank you lovely one, I’m feeling so called to offer more poetry, perhaps because it feels so accessible and yet deep in small snatched moments of mayhem in motherhood. Xxx
Oh Lauren this is so incredibly beautiful 🥹 You captured the essence of these days with such purity, thank you for sharing your words, your heart, your Art 🤍 I can’t wait to buy your book when the time comes ✨💫
Ps My journal has postpartum poetry series from the first 2 weeks after my daughter was born that I’ve been holding close to my heart, maybe you’ve just inspired me to share them with the world xx
Thank you for sharing this, Lauren! I love how the lightness of the poem reflects the frivolity of childhood, and yet the words betray the depth of our experience as mothers. So so beautiful!
Oh Lauren, how truly beautiful and precious this poem is! ✨ I am so glad you decided to share it - it has dusted my morning with a little magic. Once again, I am beyond grateful for the mention and cannot wait to see how your poetry joinery unfolds 🤍 xx

I would definitely buy your poetry book ❤️

I have the biggest smile reading this comment, thank you for witnessing my words and seeing them this way.
I would adore to read them if you decide to share. I can imagine they must be so potent from those times. Xxx

Thank you for these reflections, that’s exactly how it felt… a bit playful but also a touch raw as well. Always the paradox xxx

So grateful for your encouragement, it really means so much. This one felt a little playful which was quite refreshing as often they go quite deep! Xx
You are so very welcome 🤍 I love it when they take a little unexpected twist xx
Very sweet. I write poems too. Well tiny poems. Or maybe you could say soulful lines. (They are never a full blown poems)
They seem to arrive when I'm not trying too hard.
I love that! My poems are usually a little more serious but this felt quite playful and fun to create. Thank you for reading xxx
Lauren, your photos are poetry, too. Beautiful!
Thank you so much, I do love taking photos too! Xx
A unicorn in the bathroom, how visceral this poem is!
Yes it felt very human!!!!
This is delightful! Haha the first line made me smile so wide, knowing the chaos of having small ones in a home! 💛
Thank you Tansie! I’m sure you know the very real feeling of being watched by many magical creatures and/or stuffed animals!!! 🤪
