Echoes, By: Thomas Hemminger

February 9, 2024 by Thomas Hemminger

Echoes, By: Thomas Hemminger

I sit in the living room,
typing my work,
and I watch my baby boy
throwing his mighty ball.

I sip coffee at the table,
reading the news,
and I study my young boy
drawing his ferocious dragons.

I drive up the road
past the Methodist church
and I hear my young man
playing piano in his melodious festival.

I lie in bed at night
about to drift off
and I think of my big man
living his beautiful life to the fullest.
