Report To The Boys
(EMOTION, challenge 11/26)
Yes, I crossed over.
Saw Maha and Granddaddy
Drinking coffee, under trees.
I have loved You Swep–
You Jeremy–each and every day
Since you were born.
Always, Jerene; and Erin–
Who one midnight called
From NY, asked ¨Dad, when
Are you going to give up
On me?¨ ¨Never, Baby.¨–
I sired sons, Swep, and Jeremy,
And a daughter, Erin…
Who at fifteen, sold me her
Poems, $5 apiece.

I won’t pretend to get this poem in its entirety…. However, I feel the constrained aching love within it.
Merry Christmas Pops.
