After long labors,
I finish my poem. You say,
"Well, it's about time!"
About the Creator
Sonia Heidi Unruh
I love: my husband and children; all who claim me as family or friend; the first bite of chocolate; the last blue before sunset; solving puzzles; stroking cats; finding myself by writing; losing myself in reading; the Creator who is love.

Sonia, I don't think truer or more relatable words have been said than were in this poem! I know the exact feeling and I can tell you I've been feeling that agony a lot lately. Thank you for putting it into a words and reminding me that it's okay to feel that way! 😊
Liked this, clever and well written! -Anneliese
Clever!
Okay Heidi I can dig it, very cool
Great entry!
Yes you did and it is lovely ❤️
This was simply brilliant!
so clever, Sonia! well done!
This is great. Well done.
Quite clever! I had to read this a few times as it seemed so simple at first, but it was really well crafted. Great work on this :)
Wow. At first so seemingly simple on the surface, clever and funny. But then, breaking it down, there is a sense of irony and although it seems quick and last minute I am wondering if it wasn’t calculatedly crafted. Hehe. Tricky. Of course the pun on the last line is genius (it took me a moment to get the self referential comment about the challenge). The only word that distracts me and for some reason sounds out of place (or rather, out of time) is “effort”.
