VOICES AND ECHOES OF PARENTHOOD

in #poetry7 years ago (edited)

Hello steemians, its @Klasic again.
I have this piece of write up from a friend Who's talented in writing but not on Steemit.
I've talked to her to join steemit but due to parental guidance she's not allowed to own a phone, laptop or any electronic gadjet.
I've been posting some of her write up though, so feel free to read this one, I hope you'd like it.

<p dir="auto"><strong>I'm no radio announcer<br /> Neither am I a reporter<br /> Single parenthood in our world today<br /> Is as inevitable as death and the price we'll pay <p dir="auto"><em>Broken homes are now the headlines<br /> One life has been left to risk it at the frontlines<br /> Of the war of taking responsibility<br /> For children; tomorrow's world of possibility <p dir="auto"><strong>Hey, and you that man who has dodged the responsibility to carter for his family<br /> And left his wife to bear this alone<br /> Oh what a tragedy, I'm dumbfounded <p dir="auto"><em>Why? Isn't the same woman you led to the alter<br /> You weren't at gun point when you made those vows to her<br /> How come she's now a stupid, foolish, senseless harlot <p dir="auto"><strong>I wonder how a smart intelligent, sharp gentleman like you would choose with your wide eyes open<br /> A woman who's now devil representative <p dir="auto"><em>I'm not taking sides<br /> This is not a playing swing or park slide<br /> This is a serious matter<br /> Which needs to be addressed now or never <p dir="auto"><strong>As a woman, shouldn't you be wise enough to make choices<br /> Why leave the marriage and at the end blame forces<br /> Forces of nature or witchcraft or forces of irresponsibility which with your hands you've craft <p dir="auto"><em>Shouldn't you be considerate<br /> And think of children you'll leave behind, before its too late<br /> I don't see enough reason<br /> Why you'll sacrifice your God-giving blessing of a home and run to another person. <pre><code>TO BE CONTINUED... <p dir="auto"><em>COMMENT<br /> UPVOTE<br /> FOLLOW<br /> RESTEEM
