PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

from the Father

by liz peterson-braveheart

as Love’s child He gives

you all the gifts your heart

can feel,

take time in life

make them real,

for yesterday’s

by-gone

　shadows are scratching

as the hands of a

sculptor they mold

your young life,

and like a chameleon,

matching my ways,

you’ll grow wiser

as your poised reflection competes,

and fathers pass quietly away.
