Hug It Out

WriteBeLight

I looked up,

The other day.

As I was heading,

Down my driveway.

 

Across the street,

In the morning light,

Embraced he was,

With his ex-wife.

 

Hugging her,

Oh, so tight.

I don't think,

Saw me go by.

 

Curious because,

It was their fate.

Divorced, fighting,

Two years, to date.

 

He moved in,

With their young ones.

She lived separately,

Away and from.

 

What was once,

A happy family,

Trips together,

Holidays, parties.

 

After they split,

She’d stop by,

To visit the kids,

And, maybe try.

 

To reconcile,

Find common ground.

Then, more and more,

She came around.

 

So, there they were,

On his front lawn.

Are things to change?

Together move on?

 

Or, just hugging,

All warm and cozy.

He or she to remarry?

Haven’t the foggiest, I’m not nosey.
