My Son

MY SON

In the middle of the City stands a tall gum tree
With a trunk so bright reaching out to Yeah

Jacaranda nearby looking up at me
Yet I stand tall and proud for the world to see

Sun sets on my trunk at the end of the day
Trials Tribulations, I have a lot to say

Don’t mean no harm to come your way
So much to say at the end of the day

I aint no clone I aint no fool
I mean no harm to come to me nor you

Flesh and blood aint no excuse
I need your love not you’re abuse 

So hang on tight for time is neigh
So so sad just a wasting away

On your response, I am but waiting
I’m a patient man but time is a fading

Love dad

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist, and I'd love to help bring your story to life if you're ever interested. Feel free to reach out at gm@il : akiracomicart2@ or on inst@ akiraa_artly
