Abc's of Childhood

.
Always            bore       condemnation,
but                 couldn't   deviate.
Circumvention   dared      erupt
Dad's              exacting   force.
   We both were very stubborn.

This is an incredible triple ABC poem, Robeert. You score a triple-A from me in both your construction and the message about the similarities between you and your father! (And how did you know "Angels Flying too Close to the Ground" was one of my favorite songs. Listen to it a lot on my Willie Nelson double CD!) Love, Carolyn
