Honored Father

Painting from Diana Maus Arts


Honored Father:


You paid your dues.

The Depression, W.W. II
both took their toll from you

and four children to be clothed
and fed

meant dreams deferred,
meant stumbling through

each day knowing how the next
would be just like all the rest.

Sadly, now I recognize:
we lived together but never met
