First a little background information...
I have an acquaintance, a doctor, middle 50's, "married", grown children, unhappy and ever searching for happiness in a variety of distractions, hobbies, golf, tennis, etc. He met and hooked up with a much younger young lady when he returned to his country of birth on one of his frequent visits. He took to her completely, and after much traveling back and forth, brought her to NY for a "visit". She stayed for a few months, returned home and eventually after a while, returned for another "visit" and stayed. She eventually began to work at his medical practice as a receptionist. All blissful and happy was our doctor. Then she became pregnant. The balance of power has shifted.
Now I am not much of a poet, but I do on occasion attempt a little inspired poetic story telling. I do not feel comfortable showing my writing attempts to anyone, with the exception of my father, who was a frustrated and incredibly talented writer in his own right. But alas, he passed away several years ago. So please dear readers, bear with me, as I have not had any true critiques from anyone in a few years. Be gentle.
