Family bio



He saw her waiting

In splendid isolation

Would she be his wife?

 

She saw him fidget

In splendid isolation

Her groom was waiting

 

He looked in the crib

In splendid isolation

Their very own child

 

In the school’s playground

In splendid isolation

Her precious daughter

 

There down in the street

In splendid isolation

Her daughter's own car

  2. That 3rd stanza- brought me back to the many times I stood looking down in my kids cribs, staring at them while they slept! Then I was trapped in fear that when I walked out I'd wake them, but those moments of staring at them were so precious!
