I felt amazing talking with him as I walked from school
After getting understanding and guidance from my dad
It’s always that way after I talk with him, doing so relieves me
Of questions, or any bad feelings that I had
When I arrived home, I helped DC with his
Homework and was happy to do it
Like dad said, 2 more marking periods, then home with mom;
I gave him his lesson with savvy AND wit
When DU got in, you could tell he was satisfied
As he saw his son interact and get his answers right
Everyone finished their homework, then ate dinner
It had the makings of an encouraging and winnable fight
While eating dinner, with reserved excitement, DU remarked,
It seems as though DC is doing as he should do
When I spoke up, that today went great and we
Were gonna do the same on Wednesdays and Fridays too
I told him our family meetings were now moved to
Tuesday’s so we would have 3 full alternating days
And after dinner when he does his lone hour of study
I will help him develop better ways to get A(s)
The next day I was the first to talk to dad but he said he wouldn’t
Talk about DC or DU today, he just wanted to talk about just his brood
And how we would have much needed father and son talks
On Mondays on my way home from school
