Reena is the host of Reena’s Exploration Challenge
PROMPT #175
A year back, the prompt on Exploration Challenge was “Woman”.
I decided to reverse it.
In this week, write a story/anecdote/non-fiction piece which does not involve a woman.

A father
Seldom celebrated
Infrequently acknowledged
He bears the burden of financial responsibility
Carries the concerns of his family deep in his heart
Often unable to articulate his love and care in words
His actions sometimes deemed harsh, judgmental
But look into his heart and his worried eyes
And you will find a love that parallels that of a mother
Yet seldom celebrated or realized, but just taken for granted
♾♾♾
I was thinking of my own father, the kindest man I’ve ever known, or my husband who is a kind and caring father. But my children think him strict and there are often arguments when they declare that papa doesn’t get them!
