Well you know only recently have I found it necessary to write about my parents. Both contrasted with the other yet they were married thirty-seven years until my mother’s death. My father, I’ll keep venting about because it helps me get past many depressing things from childhood. Thanks for the comment as always, Paula.

Powerfully penned, Daniel. The flip side of the coin so to speak, compared to your mother in the previous write. You’re a gifted writer my friend. Appreciate you.

Very tender and loving, as it should be. You are fortunate to have her as inspiration. It has paid off well.

Hey, my eyes are light blue, if you wanna know! lol
Your write is wonderful. I do seem compelled by the easier nature of love poems/prose. This write fits that purpose. Well done.-

Love poems save me from having to write about war, politics, and religion. And an added bonus is that I get to find out the most interesting things about people. 😂
Thanks for the read!

Very understandable. I have a love hate relationship with my late mother. I can never have her love or know why she couldn’t love me. I wish she would have been silent and stoic. I only knew my Dad the last year and a half of his life.
Relationships are hard. You take from them what you can – even if it’s a great lesson in how to be. I wish I had known that years ago. I became too much like her. Not abusive but her other bad habits.
