Foundations

Admin 0 Comments Life

I was very fortunate to have had a good start and foundation in life, I had Grandparents who loved and looked out for me, I had a mother who prayed and sacrificed much for my gain, and  I had a father who talked with me. 

I had a father who talked with me

Allowed me the right to disagree

To question, and always answered me

As well as he could-and truthfully.

 

He talked of adventures; horrors of war

Of life, its meaning: what love was for

How each would always need to strive

To improve the world to keep it alive.

 

Stressed the duty  we own each other

To be aware each man is a brother

Words for laughter he also spoke

A silly song or a happy joke.

 

Time runs along; some say I'm wise

That I look at life with seeing eyes

My Heart is happy, my mind is free

I had a father we talked to me.
