The Father

They mention him
seldom,
in passing.
No hint of history
clings to his moniker.

 

“DaDa”-- a concept with little meaning.

 

Moving back and
forth on the periphery
of their world
he leaves no footprints
on their hearts.

Reviewed by Andre Bendavi ben-YEHU 5/22/2005

A true poetic depicting on today΄s indifference of fatherhood-motherhood. "The Father" has a poetic philosophical content that
stimulates thoughts on family and social responsibilities.

Thank You for sharing Your knowledge through Your poetic art.
