perfect attendance

Tending the flock yields a spiritual reward.

I went to work.

Sue called work because

Eric barfed (vomit).

She needed help.

She needed sleep.                            YOU

Home I came.

Home I am.

I’m watching Eric sleep AND

…sweat.

In his sleep

He stirs and moans.

The bucket is there

The towel underneath.

I pray.

Not to G-O-D

But to all that is G-O-O-D.

 

I am sentry to the boy.

I will always be here.

Watching.

Knowing.

Teaching.

Encouraging.

Rooting.

Defending.

Healing.

Loving.

 

I will always be here.

Baseball awaits…
