Dear hashmuk, These poignant lines have undoubtedly stirred one's feelings for the sad happenings told.The 6th stanza conveys a serious alert regarding parents and children's relationships. We have particularly enjoyed the last lines for the deep reflection they offer as well as the important advice. Take care and good luck to you and family.
my eyes grow wider, my heart beats faster......my childhood....in your lines.....tears..... as a single mom, i consciously chosen not to do as it was in my childhood but i must confess, i did....the feeling was horrifying, hunting. i have written an apology to my son when he was 13.....waited for forgiveness.....when it did, gratefulness is so sweet... parenting is very difficult and i read you struggle with that too....when we go deeper within and recognize what is going through, it become our strength and guideline for change and /or modification what we can do for the next time... you write so vividly with emotions that move a reader.
A wonderful message to parents and children alike...10+ thanks for sharing...
