What then of the little children?
Are they then not, such a blessing?
Sometimes I wondered,
when my daughter was,
a teen and angry.
If we could ever have the relationship,
we had when she was three.
For nearly a decade she would not even,
ride in a car with me, she was so angry.
Now she has her own little one.
and I see the cycle begin anew.
In a decade or more she may experience,
the same heartache and pain,
but for now, she has peace and joy,
Odin offers her.
