Day 27: Mitchteryosa

My townmate shared a story,
Showing her father's glory;
Father's Day will soon be,
Her story brought out tears in me.

Tears of joy and happiness,
The fulfillment of one's success;
Amidst troubles and sacrifices,
Love abounding, hearts caress.

In his time when kids were much younger,
He went abroad to solve the hunger;
But when the wheel of life rolled and he got under,
His elder child was blessed to share her shoulder.

It took some years before she came home,
When finances allowed, 30 days she got to roam;
It was so short, time to leave for work again,
When she will be back, only time will tell when.
