“My two sons visited me over the long President’s Day holiday.
I am left with mixed emotions and I wrote about it:
My boys have flown home
Leaving me with a sadness
Of times missed with them
In the aftermath of divorce
They are grown now
Each on their own journey
Yet clearly carrying
Traits from their father
In many ways still strangers
Words often chosen carefully
But seeds sown years ago
Are now admired with pride
Divorce or no divorce , you would be going thru the emotions because of the loss of their childhood has come an end. Change is nateral and feeling loss of this part of you life is a double whammy along with the divorce. I’ve been there an done that! It”s a hard time. You don’t know what to do with youself anymore. We were so wrapped up in being someone’s husband or dad or mother. But you survive! If you want too!
