to shallowness of thinking
and coldness of heart?
~
Perhaps it’s better
to wade in deeper water
and stroll along warmer paths.
A Necessary Clarification
After sedation,
and the kids have gone to bed,
what should parents do?
~
My son, to answer
this, I’d have to know who has
been sedated, them or you.

Where Did The Years Go?
What I want to know
is where did the years go and
how can we find them?

They pass, as always,
at the usual pace.
We must notice them passing.
