PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Johnny

He could have been

Tall, dark and so handsome

He could have been so much like dad

But gone



Jenny

Ballerina

The singing and dancing

Little princess of her papa

Could be



Billy

So scholarly

Smart, dignified, honest

Could be a political bet

Maybe



And you

Little Lily

Just like I thought would be

So much like your mommy indeed

So weak



Gave up

Just like I did

Johnny, Jenny, Billy

I couldn’t fight for their daddies

Sorry



Your choice

If you only

took time to talk with me

Like I should have done with my mom

Too late
