Notes About The Poem
Divorce Poetry Contest, Sponsor - Matt Caliri. Date written: 11/23/2023

Divorce

Death of a marriage 
Impacts a family, divides a house;
Very stressful experience, no doubt.
Once happy state of a union now 
Reduced to a heap of rubble;
Children caught in the middle of 
Ensuing war between Mom and Dad.
