Even Though You Know: Revolutionary Blogging Free Verse Poem

Even though you know/
you don’t appreciate things/
until you don’t have them,/
you really don’t./
Like breathing.

It feels strange to have /
a teen admonish me: “Make/
good choices!” He’s right!

How can I say I’m/
sorry for what we did and/
that we must repent?

The knowledge I’ll take/
with me is not science or/
math. It’s how to love.

I had never seen/
her not smiling. It was hard/
to recognize her.

You don’t know you are/
walking on water ’til you/
fear and start sinking.

With all the power/
we have, the point’s moot without/
our families with us.

The saddest I will/
ever be is to know how/
I failed my children.

Until I bow to/
God’s will and do what He asks,/
I cannot know Him.
