No One No How

At first I thought I worried too much,

A mother hen not letting her chicks out her clutch,

But as time goes by, I see more and more

Little things here,But what's at the core,

The more things come out,I regret my decision,

To let them go with their father not knowing how they're living,

I hear things from them,denials from her,

From him,he knows nothing,eyes covered in fur,

The truth starts to come out from neighbors and such,

If it's gotten this bad,they need their mothers touch,

How could I have put them in a situation like this,

I should have just held on with a hug and a kiss,

But now they're coming back to my loving arms,

Where no one and no how will they come to any harm!

 

And that's a promise this mother will never break!

I so know what you mean -

I so know what you mean - from a father's point of view, but same situation. I consider this to be an outpouring rather than a rambling since you retain focus throughout the piece. Iechyd da [Good Health - Welsh] Mike
