Just a couple of tricks : Adult Poetry

written by Poet : Jeff Pelsang


"

Married for 2o years,

Just a mom with three kids,

Her love some how evolved and changed,

Once a strong hard working man now some what strange and hard to understand,

With time they grew apart as do the branches from the roots,

A bond of children, more precious then gold,

Was not enough to pull them together to hold,

One night she went to bed and kissed her husband on his head,

Already asleep he didnt even take notice to her kiss,

By morning time his pillow lay empty and a letter left for Tess,

""Im sorry but I cant do it anymore, my life is such a mess"",

""Goodbye forever and give my love to our children"",

""Ill be in heaven soon if God Willing"",

""Baby youll always be loved and with our children be blessed""

Thats all he wrote, and he was gone never to return leaving Tess and the kids to run the farm,

She tried her best but when the tractor broke down and the rain didnt come in she wept,

Broken from the events of the present and the major losses of the past,

She put her oldest in charge till she got back,

She gave her 20 bucks and told her to spend it wisely and make it last,

That night she went to the city dressed up in high heels and a mini,

Pink top and with her shoes that match,

Cheap jewelery and to the eye she was an easy catch,

Out to work the streets and thats what she did,

Survival tactics she learned when she was a kid,

Just a couple tricks is all she had to do,

Enough to pay the bank, keep her girls fed and still in school.
