Carry the load looking for better

Author Note: Not since the depression have there been so many single parents waiting...

Thumb seeking hope
new place I have never been

Tried to hold the dream

Love left behind
crib crying

Burden too great to carry

Cookie jar stuffed
road lonely

Latest score six months worth

Time played
mind tried

Retro going to her

Soul gives
birth finds

Palace still over the hill

Worth seen
Black as night

Daddy please come home

Thumb catches the wind
and life moves another direction

Walter,

I read the title as "Thumb SUCKING Dreams." LOL Sorry 'bout that.

Sparcity of words packs a lot of emotion--an excellent write. I think I'll go suck my thumb now LOL

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
