Nothing Better Than a Sincere Apology

nothing sadder than
a child who has been disappointed
by a parent

nothing more important
than a sincere apology
if that parent is you

Caren, 'nothing more important ~~ than a sincere apology' Such a vagabond truth. I think this is wonderful verse. I think the same of the poet. -Richard

Amen to that, Caren! I sure it doesn’t happen often enough, though…

It happens with me a lot; I have a zillion apologies to make.

Absolutely, Caren. I really don't know why this should happen, as generally children can be read and there should never be reason for crippling disappointment. But, it does happen, and now that I think about it, I can see some occasions...i.e. divorce.
