Father
listen
I assure you thus ..
there never was
a love
so strong as his ..
twas
strong enough
to make
bad men cry
and strong men
weak
and children
follow in his wake ..
while
women lost
themselves
at his sainted feet ..

truly beautiful....what else can I say? I am jealous of this awe inspiring man, cannot say my experience was the same.....C
thank you C .. my Dad would be chuffed to bits .. I Hope he is looking down write now and can read ya .. x
Ohhh, you praise me too much - a fine poem about me! heehee.
You have inspired me with a fantastically original title for one of me next poems: 'Mother'. lol.
those red dots on your temple aint lipstick Mr O .. it's a whole bunch of laser sights 🐭
Will ya admit it's a brilliant tile for me (maybe) next poem? Dunno how I would have thought of it without the title of your poem here. Doh!
you may have got there in the end .. but John Lennon got there before ya 🐧
As someone who has no true image, I see you just like this!
I could not say the same for my own father but hope I inspire some of this from my own child.
Thank you for sharing
Always a pleasure
I am sure you will Dan and thank you my friend for the thumbs up .. I really dont deserve it though 🙂
We all come into this world, equal at birth. It is what we go home to that makes all the difference. You are fortunate indeed dear friend, for a father who loved you and taught you well. He must have been a wonderful role model, for that goodness is there in all that you write, in the person that you are. I I'm sure he is looking down and saying "That's my boy, I'm so proud". God bless you both!
I can not fight the compulsion to thank you with all my heart dear Bella, but assure you, I do not deserve the pedestal I am afforded ... Neville
indeed they are, very rare
but one decent one in your life
can make up for a lifetime
of those accursed vultures..
(Brilliant!)
did I ever tell you about those vultures Mek .. cheers ++ 🙂
His love will always be with you Neville as mine is for me.
Andy
thanks Andy that's truly a nice thought .. Neville
