Love's Intro
Silent Father, Burdened Mother
“Dad’s silence, like a cold, distant wave,
Mom’s worries, a storm I couldn’t brave.
In their world, I was trying to find my stave,
A melody of love, I desperately crave.”
A Mother’s Late Awakening
“Then mom turned, her eyes finally met mine,
A late attempt to mend, crossing an invisible line.
Is it too late for love to realign?
In her eyes, a flicker of hope, a hesitant sign.”
My profession is online marketing and development (10+ years experience), check my latest mobile app called Upcoming or my Chrome extensions for ChatGPT. But my real passion is reading books both fiction and non-fiction. I have several favorite authors like James Redfield or Daniel Keyes. If I read a book I always want to find the best part of it, every book has its unique value.
