I Think of My Father

Posted in Poetry

i think of my father

 

who sits alone tonight

who misses his sweetheart

who will probably remarry

 

because man was not meant to be alone

in this stupid, senseless world

where my mother is dead

with grandchildren yet unborn

 

and in spite of it all

in spite of the Sacrifice

and faith and hope and love remaining

 

o death there is a sting

As a stay-at-home, formerly tandem-nursing, homeschooling mother of four lively blessings, Tandemonimom finds herself with so much extra time on her hands, she must look for ways to fill it creatively! Blogging seems to be a good way relieve some of the clamor in her head.
