Daily Prompt – Oversight
A little hole here,
A little gap there.
The missing parts
Bring about by oversight.
Insecure feeling in a child, who
Needs a nod or a smile;
Hurtful heart in a spouse, who
Waits for a word of love;
Unsure look on a friend, who
Expects a hug before goodbye.
Mending the difference is an essence; by
Mutual communication,
Slower the pace of interaction,
Ensuring sensitive attention,
Valuing relationship over tasks done.
Oversight is to be forgiven, or
Bridge the gap with a kiss and a hug!
