The Hard Road

Jenn, I truly love this write...I become tired of trying to decipher through metaphors and over-large words , this says what it means and creates real emotion! A refreshing piece! love it!

It is nice when families can get past their differences and realize what matters most - Love....

As usual, your rhyming isn't forced and the piece flows great. It is realistic and full of emotion. Definetly a piece many can relate to. Nice job!

You loved me with your silent words
Protective acts of war
When I thought I'd gone too far
You loved me even more
^^^
I loved the ending in this stanza Jenn.

You, my father, I, your daughter
Love held in between
Confusion turned to understanding
Chaos, to serene
^^^
This ending is beauty!
When we get older and become parents ourselves we begin to understand the difficult job our own parents had.

Though we were angels weren't we Jenn *winks* ... lol
I still shine my halo every now and then ... lol

Loved the flow in this piece and the words are very touching !

Wonderful read my friends

Awww this is precious. Sometimes it seems that we just don't see eye to eye with our parents. I love the peacemaking ending of your poem. Very nice.
