Emile Pinet Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

It's the Best

When schizophrenia attempts to drown my son
I spin a lifeline of love that can't be undone.
And toss it to him when he starts slipping under
for I'll not let him drown or be torn asunder.

When I hold him, and he lays his head on my chest
and says, "father, I can hear your heart”...it's the best.
