Fathers Day

Jerry Reynolds

 

First man I ever met,
the one who taught me
to step and throw.
When to be heard, when 
to shut up, and never
talk past the close.

      a fine man I am sure ... a fine write too sir ..

    • L. B. Mek

      this is when your style shines, Jerry
      incisively acute, frugal word choices
      making metaphorical incisions in our memories
      to unravel and awaken, those untameable: emotions...
      Brilliant, in its unassuming simplicity
      of accessibly worded relatability!
      thank you
