Chasing the Ball...

Simply for sake of conversation, On one chilling, dark December evening, I challenged my son to one-on-one; Time offered me the reason. Spotlights glaring...hours playing, My tall, gaunt black-haired boy, Submitting his secrets on that day, Love I willingly offered to my boy. That red cobblestone alley...two lives altered, Girls...friends...not friends...music ~ we discussed; Countless questions...answers with integrity performed, Honesty I offered...conquering trust. So many demons surround us, Fresh snow...digressive days When I search for him as the wind argues before and behind us, My heart shall find my son in that alley... I love you, Tyler. Mom xo
