Softly so as not to disturb a snore Knowing that soon I"ll do this no more Looking in on sleeping youthful faces Soon we shall no longer share places Their mothers wishes soon to be granted Goodnight to all the seeds I have planted Wishing them only happiness and joys Last time smiling at their small toys Thrown and tossed in happy yesterdays Knowing that I am the one that pays Beause of their mothers indiscretion Daddy now must look in a new direction Looking forward and facing tomorrow I shall do so without any sorrow Because of the honor I live and sow All my seed shall thrive and grow |

The last two lines sum up in a neat, concise way, the man that you are.... it's good to know you! |

My muse perceives this in different dimensions. From the religious view I wonder if this is a reference to God and his seeds of spirit- or if it is simply a betrayed husband/lover/father. I would be interested to hear your take. I re-read this as if our Heavenly Father were speaking. If this is the take this truly would be a shame. A.M. |

Don, This is so sad. You sound like a wonderful father who will do anything for his children. I hope things work out for you and your children. Dawn |
