Margarita Lillico Poet Monoku

Too Little Too Late

mom, without malice, 
cast upon chastity spell,
overprotecting

Timid Tracy never had a date, 
Humbly yet she accepted her fate
Mom, so wise and adept,
Refuses to accept
Her dear daughter's virginity state

thoughtful advice from the wise often takes young in the right direction but at the wrong time

Rico Leffanta January 19, 2022 at 10:23 AM Until the 1929 Marriage Act, the minimum age was 14 for boys, and 12 for girls, so "time is of the essence!"? Aloha! Margarita Lillico January 19, 2022 at 10:41 AM Darn, without that act I had my girls at 30, 37 and 40...:) Aloha!
