Father and Daughter

Two peas in a pod 😘

With my daughter Sara sight seeing in Santa Monica before my oldest son’s California wedding

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

Sara on her graduation day last spring

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

By Jared Erondu on Unsplash

Open arms from which

your future awaits.

Set sail my beautiful Sara!
