Default Father

(Well this one isn't about how my family is reacting but it was written in tribute to my dad, so i thought it should go here)

Father,
like the petals of a flower
soft and genle at the heart
with a stron stem
to bear the elements

Father
like a gentle morning's mist
cool and refreshing
on the faces of those you touch
almost a mystery

Father
like an evergreen
with branches that never die
standing strong, tall and proud
silently watching all around

Father
like a melody
easy to play and sing
fun to hear
always welcome

Father
like a child
with a sparkle in your eye
seeing the wonder of life
bringing joy to all around

Father
the light of my soul
the joy of my heart
you are all of these things to me
just as a father should be

the poembandit

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Hey free...ever thought of writing for a greeting card company? Don't know how much it pays, but you could always check into it.
