Children

[Angharad]

Whether you have them or don't; love them or loathe them...they're everywhere. The world of the future...always becoming, as someone wise once said. Any thoughts?

to the Moody Blues
our childrens' childrens' children
nice piece of music

[Angharad]

look of pure wonder
her eyes wide taking it in
beautiful dreamer

[Drew Francis]

over explosions
of laughter and shouting boys
calls dinner is served

[Angharad]

splashing and giggling...
daddy wistfully watches
her childhood swim by

[Drew Francis]

living in pictures
proper pronouns exhaling
from the lips of fish

[Angharad]

beautiful daughters

grown now and having children...

a son born today

 

tears on grandpa's face

receiving his daughter's gift

namesake once removed

 

he shuts his eyes tight

life rushes by unbidden

suddenly he sees

 

love totters forward

on infinite chubby legs

laughing and crying

[Angharad]

a new soul greets us

joining the clamor of life

one small hand outstretched

[metub4]

finding brave new world

experiences to find

lessons to be learned

[Daddieo]

brighter than the sun

our children lead us all home

with love they fly on

[Angharad]

BEAUTIFUL, Daddieo.

[Angharad]

ever in my heart

two angels who look like you

fly far from my arms

 

[metub4]

contact continues

those deep in our hearts do dwell

til the end of time
