starved, dreaming,nursing, blast, fathers,
sons, bodies, gallop, nights, beers, against,
starved of moments away from home
dreaming to be wholesomely happy
nursing delights of life on their own
what a blast so they thought to be free
aren't they seeing what's coming
fathers and sons developing a relationship
avoidance of conversations seen looming
bodies to gallop separately sans courtship
nights of beer guzzling on the sly
aren't these just fleeting moments of joy
going against the nature of family ties
blind to the blessings that fathers deploy
the right time leaving the nest
would have been the best

The mystery of the many-facets of family. Love this Hank & that photo is charming.
ReplyDeleteThe bone between children and their parents is a pious one, but these days the base of such benefits ND is being shattered.
ReplyDeleteThat's what family life is all about Hank.
ReplyDeleteYvonne.
Father/son bonding is essential and happy those who are so priviledged
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by my blog Hank
Much💛love💐
Can sure go the opposite way too.
ReplyDeleteSometimes that early bond is lost...
ReplyDeleteWhat is it to be free, so many bags already packed, dragging them somewhere, longing to be free.
ReplyDeleteNice last two lines.
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting approach to the prompt...to think about family relationships...the father/son relationship. Complex for sure.
ReplyDeleteI think father and son relationships can be so complex... there are so many dimensions to it.
ReplyDeletemale stoicism, avoidance of conversation... we must be careful lest true relationship is reduced to the stoic, aloof, cultural heuristics of just the typical rituals. Better to get in the surf, and get in the sun, and to talk. This was tender for me. Well done!
ReplyDeleteWell written, Hank!
