Son’s Day- Sunday

September 13, 2017 by Russell Wardlow Leave a Comment

You’ll probably never know, maybe one day

But I saved blocks of time and space

Hours of thoughts and memories

Nights of dreams and sleeplessness

Plenty of ink and paper

All for you…

Antagonistically the amount of buttons we push throughout our lifetime-

I have devoted as much time for love,

Countless time and an infinite amount in tow I saved –

A space, thought, memory, daydreams, pen and paper

But most importantly, a day

To infinitely press your mom’s buttons

Just to get to my son on Sunday.
