Kay Sherwin Poet Rhyme

The Great Glowing God

The Great Glowing God

She brings him his meals in his chair
As he watches the Great Glowing God.
She makes sure there’s clean clothes to wear,
Still he’s watching the Great Glowing God.
She raises the kids, guides them on their way,
Cleans up after him every day
While he stares straight ahead with barely a nod
As he worships the Great Glowing God.

Line Gauthier February 19, 2018 at 10:28 AM I loved the poem, Kay. I pictured a paraplegic who did not have all his faculties. And felt this was confirmed because of the 3 lines about God. I could also relate to the way women "our age" cater to men... I much prefer my first interpretation. Well done, Kay.
