Parenting

 

I can try.

He may reply.

But that’s just barely getting by.

We’ll know we’ve finally reached the sky

When he knows why.

small children, small problems-my mum always say that.

I'm a single mother of two children, I dont think pareting is hard. I dont see that in your poem either. I see joy within a small child when he explore the world, the love from his parents and when he grows up you will know the results of your pareting.

Good lines, very well written.

John,
Parenting is hard any way you look at it. . . but also one of the most rewarding things in life.

A book on parenting in five lines--great job! Most importantly, you both keep working at it. One of these days, he will amaze you.
John, I don't remember reading your work before, but you are here much longer than I. I'll have to go a little farther. or further.: ]

It is a happy realization when maturity overtakes the teenage years and things finally start to sink in.
