Molly Cooper Poet Free verse

A Mom Forgotten

Feeling forgotten in so many ways……


Friends to support me, I reach out for 
The love he used to give me so freely
I wish he knew, how he breaks my heart
And fills it with love so completely

I tell him, yet he’s not listening
He cannot hear with the ipod in his ear…
His choices (he has made it very clear)
It’s like he is being driven by some outside force
Like a teenage “Driving Mrs. Daisy” of sorts

All I can do is love him, try to guide him in the right direction
And hope that his “Onstar” is on course

I’m still his mom til’ the end of his days
Feeling Forgotten in so many ways….

Carolyn Devonshire July 16, 2010 at 9:42 AM Teens often seem to forget to show love to their parents. With all of the technology available to them today, they seem consumed in it, Molly. It's so sad to be a forgotten mom. God bless you, dear. This is a sad reflection of life as it is it is influenced by techno-gadgets today. Love, Carolyn
