The Start Of A Beautiful Day Poem by Diego Adrian Manriquez

</>I woke up at about 6 a.m.
I heard noises coming from the outside of the room,
As I walk out in my little dinosaur oneis,
I noticed that there were several bags placed near the front door,
My mother leaning up against the wall,
With bloodshot wet eyes,
I was too young too fully understand what was going on,
So I asked if we were going on vaction,
The innocence of my voice made my mother lose it,
She fell to the floor,
My father hastely walking back and forth carrying more bags,
He did not pay attention to me,
He looked as if he was furious,
I remember exactly what he was wearing,
The same white polo shirt he was wearing when we took the picture on my 4th birthday,
He then had finished and offered his hand to my mother who was still crying,
She got up and walked away,
He looked at me and told me not to wake up my older sister,
He told me to he was going to go put his things in his car,
He then told me as he walked to the door to go get packed,
He then took all of his belongings and closed the door,
I ran to my room and started packing everything I wore into my blue suitcase,
10 minutes later,
I had ran outside screaming 'dad wait for me'
When I had gotten to the driveway his car was gone,
I turned around and my mother was at the front door.
I've never seen here like this before,
She told me that my father had left and would comeback,
So I took my things and went back inside,
I sat right in front of the door waiting for him to return,
Sadly he still hasn't came back.
