Sunday 160


Happy Birthday Dad

Daddy’s little girl
fought into her teens.
After college, she said upon parting,
“Love Mom, you don’t know how long you have together.”
It was a heart attack.

  2. This is chilling. Engages powerful feelings and I want to know more! Have an awesome Sunday. (What are you doing up so early?)

  6. Chilling is right. Sometimes the shortest poems, the shortest statements say too much.

    Be well this weekend.
