Focused on My Family – v3

A night out, Saturday, cut short
needing to go back home
to put them to bed,
to give her rest
a time to mend and heal

no regrets of the change
the redirection homeward
where we needed to be
resting when we needed to
no regrets at all

Focused on My Family
note 9/26/19 –
not sure the basis of the change in plans,
Erica was 10, Shyanne 6, Shanequa 4;
but I wrote the poem Pocahontas-ed
at September 23, 2006 21:12, about 5 minutes later
about the girls sleeping downstairs with gramma
and about 15 minutes later I wrote the poem
Closer to the Fire at September 23, 2006 21:22
about YMCA summer camp years before
