My Family

My Family Peeping into past my reminiscence as child displays dark shadow. Mom’s loud negligence biased treat on my daily need pricked my self- esteem. But I was the pearl of my Dad’s hard core heart. Grandma bestowed care. A girl needs her Mom. Painful childhood wept and wept being deep deprived. A lone fighter fought to get herself established on satisfaction. Got fair scope to build my own family yielding all treasures of heart. Two brave brilliant daughters were blessed by God. I showed light to them. They reached their goals now having own families. I travel alone. 05/05/16 Haiku on " My Family ' contest Sponsor marvin celestial

The most healing way to overcome a difficult childhood is to become the kind of parent you wish you would have had. I can relate. This is beautifully written Anisha. Congratulations on your win! # 7 ; )
