Parental Love

If you bite ten fingers,
the degree of pain is
                                different
the feeling of pain 
the same.

Some people get lonely at college,
but I never really feel alone.
I have these critical parental voices
that always keep me company
and point out my mistakes.


Premium Member DAILY GRATITUDE PARENTAL WISDOM

I am grateful for my parents…
and this wisdom they subtly dispersed…
that behind every child who believes in themself
is a parent who believed in them first.

Premium Member Plucky June

June showed her pluck at an early age
As prophesized by a pleasant sage
Six nuns tried to put her into a cage
This quickly made Omaha’s front page
Causing lots of readers parental rage
She is loose today, in Alzheimer’s stage

Premium Member OUR SHOULDERS

May we be blessed to understand
our shoulders are meant to carry the weight of our children’s worries…
that is one of our parental powers…
And just as blessed to understand our children’s shoulders
were never meant…to carry the weight of ours.

Premium Member DAILY GRATITUDE PARENTAL MATH

I am grateful for understanding parental math…
although I’m sure my elementary teachers 
would think my math misguided…

How the love for each of our children, 
grandchildren
and great grandchildren 
can be whole…
no matter how many times it is divided.

Puberty

Public opinions that
Undermine the ground on which we walk
Bedeviled only be enticing jeers
Emotions that are vexing are laid-out with a cuss
Ranting &  raving "The world is out to get us!"
Taking in sustenance over parental spiels
You've not forgotten how it feels?

       growing in body and mind.
          lots of living to do, still.
     bunch of life lessons to learn;
       i m b i b e  parental wisdom 
schooled on the birds and the bees
    keep searching for yourself, kid.
   make the most out of your youth!

Premium Member It Takes Two..The Birds and the Bees

Inquiring minds want 
To know how it all works

Ticklish subject
A question that can get your
Knickers in a twist
Especially if they look you in the eye
So, I suggest

Take them out for ice cream
When you get back defer to father/mother
Oh, parental duty..spare me!

Premium Member I Can’t Handle

I can’t handle
ornery
brooding
detachment
My parental figures
romantic
warm
close
Oh, they yelled
momentarily
harmlessly
humorously
(to me at least)
like when Dad
spilled sugar
sugar lips
martini cheers
against her urn
I can’t handle
grief
tears
a broken heart

Premium Member children are parental pawns

Parental perimeters
Rules upon rules
Encage their helpless children
Who have no other life guides
Until the formative years are over

Children are parental pawns
Humans without power
Creatures with no rights
No say so, stuck in cages
At the mercy of parents who have all the power

Teenagers

Sleeps till noon or later every single day
communicates in shrugs, mime "talk"
grunts, facial expressions and sarcasm.

Disagreeable to any parental suggestions 
Disagreeable to disagree with peach pie
and ice cream on a hot day in July

Disagreeable with hot chocolate in January's blizzard

Premium Member As I Walk V

As I Walk in winters cold
children seek warmth
amid parental windbreaks
disrupted by winters harshness
school buses arriving late
as for the sighs I hear
maybe it's just the wind
or if possible
the sound of my heartache

Daniel, Christina, Christopher, Alexandria 
I love and miss you all.

Premium Member Let Him Explain

She wore uncertainty on her shoulder
    hesitation held back her shoes
  Twitches split her left forearm
    these emotions seeped into their news

  Let him explain, she considered
    nerves of steel need not preparation...
  In the pit of a parental boardroom
    one word ~ eloped ~ sealed their doom

Intransigence

INTRANSIGENCECapricious in opinion
Parental – High handedness
Work put in
By sentinel minions
Juggernaut enthused 
Serial circumstance
Discorded use. 	Abstinence!
Crushed!				UNDONE!
Inconsonance
I am slighted.  Rebuffed!
Disinherited
Urgency brings revolution
Insurgence
Of divine retribution.

End.

Premium Member Parental Advisory

It is beyond certainty, that the public is no place for profanity. Using language that is obscene, is considered dirty and not clean. If you have a CD, with a parental advisory, then it is something you have to hide. Keep that filthy noise inside. inspired by another member's poem

Premium Member Gauche

Giving alcohol to a hungry crying child instead of milk
Advising a teenager to neglect all parental advice
Unleashing so much anger when love is on public display
Courting the girl next door just to steal her puppy
Endless stupidity, heaping more stains on an already bad personality

Premium Member Parental Advice Number 428

We are here to enjoy our children.
This is your life too.
Scolding, shouting, gritted teeth.
None of that is physically fun.
Let your lighter graces take flight.
Steer yourself and them into serenity.
Only into lunatic black holes
Can you come out the unexpected end where
Memories are forged in trust in the other.

Premium Member A Parental Love

With the presence of gravity
We seem to move on flat surfaces
Instead of curve surfaces
And we have no danger of 
Falling out and disappeared into space
A parental love
Is just like the force of gravity
Drawing us heartily close and tight
Freeing us from
Frights and nervousness
Tensions and pressures
Helplessness and disappointments
