Dead Fruit

My sister showed me a message from my half-brother she received through facebook at lunchtime. There was brief news in there without any detail. Both of us have not seen our half brother and sister for some considerable time through our own choice. Although, we hold no grudges or ill feelings towards Ellie and Dan since kids are often a victim of circumstances and you cannot choose your family or what happens within it. Sometimes however, you need distance from a parent who has other motives or agendas.

It is interesting to see the difference in the two sides of the family, one is strong, full of Love and the other broken down and departed.

The following is a doodle really on been shown the message.

Mother’s Fruit

A seed was planted
Never good, Never bad
Only to be what it is to be.
Thirty six years past
The Fruit has failed
left a thorn in the throat
while you watch the clock
tick on
alone.
