It's easy to remember our mother's, but
sometimes our fathers, perhaps more distant, slip into the past. I
loved this collection. Carolyn Howard-Johnson and Magdalena Ball
bring back those precious moments with fathers. In the images, you
feel the silent memories and see glimpses of the fathers these
daughters remember.
I particularly loved Carolyn short
poem, “Remembered for His Smile.” It could have been about my
father except he smoked cigars.
A line from “Father Earth” in
Magdalena Ball's collection resonated with me, “it's hard to be a
father these days.” It is hard to be a father, so it's especially
important to take time to think about those important men in our
lives.
Nancy, I'm so appreciative that you take time to support your fellow authors. I'll enter your blog address along with the link into the thank you portion of my SharingwithWriters newsletter.
