On Pinterest

pretty things on Pinterest

I see on my screen

beauty, fresh and lovely

all neat and clean

dream houses and décor

food, ideas, art

you could click forever

each time you start

I look at our mess

scattered over the floor

grace is here somewhere

I just have to dig 
a bit more

find the joy in the clutter
and try not to mutter

of chaos, and going insane

even a house full of love
is still not a house without pain

mine is broken beauty

not the Pinterest style

colours clash, ideas crash

after a while

living is imperfect

grace in the strife

Pinterest is there,

it won’t go anywhere
but I have to believe

I do have a beautiful life!

just a minute I'll take to pin it
something pretty and new

then I’m off to play games

with Thing 1 and Thing 2…
