Notes About The Poem

Date written: 01/19/2025

One Tough Goodbye


Poor child crying his eyes out;
Clutching on with vice-like grip...
Peeling her child off her legs;
Sad mom heads to work.

One day mom is crying as her child goes out into the world. Emotive write. I am a bit past that circumstance, now I smile.
