BAD NEWS by Joan SerratelliHow much more
can she take?
She 's fragile
she's going to
break
I would not
presume to tell her
what to do
With every fiber
of my being
I wanted things to
work out
I never considered
that things would go
so dreadfully wrong
LIFE is far
from fair
I'm worried
out of my mind
Will this have a
happy endong?
She is my daughter
Unfortunately,
she has my luck

Posted by Gregory O'Neill on 01/19/11 at 08:58 PM We cannot truly plan, because we do not understand the future--but this is not necessarily bad news. We could plan while bearing in mind our limitations. It just takes guts...something we only sometimes have. |
