my father
on a cliff
in the grass
looking out
over the blue
waters of the Atlantic
a jetty reaches out
to his left
a finger of rock and trees
pointing
and his eyes
follow the direction
as if it wants
him to notice something
my father is always
looking farther out
to the far reaches
to the horizon
my father is
always
looking out
for me
on a cliff
in the grass
looking out
over the blue
waters of the Atlantic
a jetty reaches out
to his left
a finger of rock and trees
pointing
and his eyes
follow the direction
as if it wants
him to notice something
my father is always
looking farther out
to the far reaches
to the horizon
my father is
always
looking out
for me
HAPPY FATHERS DAY!!!!
