BURY THE HATCHET

entry picture

Why chop down this tree

of honor

The greatest gift God

provides is our children

---

If we are lucky enough

to have them

And privilaged enough

for them to want to spendĀ 

time with us

We have been given riches

beyond any material reward

---

To take a hatchet

and cut down theĀ 

relationship

Is beyond foolish

Better to cut off your

right arm

---

Someday you will

wake up and wish

you would have rejoiced

When your son reached out

his right arm

to you...

Thanks Gideon some people just don't understand what they have until it's gone. Sad right?

Just the title says it all but... I haven't been fortunate to have my own children but I understand the message. This is very beautiful. Great work.
