RE: These Roots (Original Poetry)

in #poetry2 years ago

Their worries
were more myopic,
like what
could be made
for Sunday
dinner to feed
a table full
of hungry mouths.

I know what is starving and being homeless. There was a time in my childhood, when we (my brother, our mother and me) were homeless. I remember eating a slice of cheese for dinner. So I know this from personal experience. We (my brother and me) were born and grew up in Budapest, Hungary.

Have a nice day. All the best. Greetings and much love from Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain.

I'm very sorry to hear you had to go through those kinds of struggles in this life but I'm glad you made it through. Have a wonderful Friday, my friend. I hope life is still good for you there on that beautiful island.

Me too. We (my brother, our mother and me) "restarted" our lives multiple times. It all started with a violent, alcoholic step-father. Or real father. I still do not even know.

I hope life is still good for you there on that beautiful island.

Yes. I very much enjoy it.

Have a nice day and have a nice weekend.
All the best. Greetings and much love from Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain.

I'm happy to see you've broken the cycle and are a peaceful soul. Enjoy your day!
