Hey ladies--

I was looking through one of my sisters scrapbooking books that she lent me and there is a page on how to write a poem for the Poem Writer impaired!! (which describes me!)

My example

My sweet darling
By Mommy

Jhanai,
Beautiful, sweet, darling, creative
Loves singing, dancing, laughing and talking
Yearns for love, fame and adventure
Shares with the world laughter and kindness
Will certainly follow her heart
Without whom I would never laugh
Jhanai
My sweet darling daughter

Ok...mines not the best but it was an example. I thought for those who are doing scrapbooking and would like to write a poem of their own....this could be a template. And I just felt like I should share.

Marti,

How cool!! Thank you for sharing it with us. And I really like your poem about Jhanai!

I printed the form and will use it soon.

Nice template and poem Marti!

I never use poems when I scrapbook, but copied this template anyway. I hardly journal in my scrapbooks either. Usually just put a silly remark, what the picture is about or names and dates or if it is a holiday. I may just use a poem though when I do the kids books, which will be soon.

Thanks for posting it.
