Oh Mother, what has become of you? Dear Father, I speak of you . . . Take one glance around you see what you have created Your ghosts have been bestowed upon us like a place setting at a feast A feast of not food but of our souls which we have been knawing on since birth [This message has been edited by littlewing (04-03-2003 02:50 PM).] |

what a powerful write why do fathers never see the damage done & rarely stay involved after too painful ? or just cowards letting the abandoned feal what they refuse to deal with - I could relate - candid & touching [This message has been edited by dreambuilder (04-03-2003 11:21 PM).] |

I first thought you were speaking of the Universal Mother and Father ... Anyhow this saddens me, the words cut deep .... it means you have done a great job! Hugs. Margherita |
