"Everyone makes mistakes!"
The father said to his daughter
With a warm smile, cleaning up the paint that
Spilled over the white carpet.
She laughed as she embraced
Her father with a tight hug.
Wiping tears from her face, She finally realized what her
Father meant all those years ago,
"Everyone makes mistakes"
She says in a cool tone,
Cleaning the white carpet
Now stained in his blood.
