Jo’s given me more fodder for thought in the form of poetic instruction.
Here’s the result:
sons
distant, close
fighting, growing, changing
Alpha, Omega, blinding, bright
infuriating, loving, endearing
warm, essential
sunrays

Wow Em, I don’t know anything about poetic forms and such. But the words you used are brilliant. I love the relationship you grafted between son, and sun.
