! Creative Writing & Poetry !An old man’s wandering all alone
Longing for rememberance of his son
Who’s looking forward for a world to see
Before looking back at what he has done
Let kindness shelter his world around
Grown unto a man whose love impart
And keep unto the one he has chosen to stay
Filled with love and laughter in his heart
Let not his life lay wasted as mine
With dreams emptied by choices wrong
Abandoned in solitude filled with despair
Desperately needing a place to belong
My precious son fight for your life
Make it the best in your power to be
Love like you mean it with all that you are
And live your life as one who is free

Do you know the story about the man who had a cripple son and was sad about it until the war exploded and recruiting was forced but they rejected him because of his crippling?
Jus to tell…. sometimes we do not know what wasting our lives is meaning… such is the terrible odour of the experiences. Your son is there by himself, and the roots are your love and understanding. If you know, respect and nourish you own being, with a careful desire,I am sure that your bond will be eternal, and your life a gem of richness for him and for you.
Thanks.

Heart wrenching heart of a parent. Your son is fortunate to have a father with a heart as revealed here.
