P. 10
A Time
Away
Unwanted separation
I call it that
A time away from my 2 angels
How sad a heart becomes.
Day by day the thought
Of her teenage girls it cannot gloom
Her teenage girls it cannot educate
Her teenage girls it cannot share laughter with
A piece they too are missing
Missing to complete their puzzle
Incarceration! Incarceration!
Oh, what a painful time away.
In a closed wall the heart prays and hopes
A hope that grows each day
Of reuniting with her girls
A time away
Yet a time ticking to be home again
with you my teenage girls.
