Dad, if I’m ever in need
Please provide for me
Dad, if I’m ever in doubt
Please believe in me
Daughter...
I hope to always provide
A home of nourishment
love and encouragement
A place where you belong
A home where you grow strong
I hope to always be
Your ajuga bloom, my bumblebee
Your cup and saucer, my lover of herbal tea
Your source of sweet guiding nectar
Of comforting warm and peaceful protector
And if I fail you
Please forgive me
Remembering...
As a father in the shadow
One greater than I has open arms
Open arms from which
your future awaits.
Set sail my beautiful Sara!

Many poems and posts I write have a nature theme, with family or faith frame of reference. I hope you enjoy.
