Gift
of love...
Over the years i have given you so much pain.
for this alone i feel great shame...
I pray that you'll come home
every single night...
Only my children
Bring such love on fathers day...
I was that flower
which blooms in winter...
She is a child in a woman's body
resenting her mommy...
The memories of your blood
can never be deleted...
Come tuck into my embrace
Let me breathe the scent of you...
Sometimes bitter disappointment
keeps you from remembering...
My religion is the love shared
between me, my wife and children...
Rainbows whisper grace
As your sweet presence shines bright...
The words spoken
are like a quivering...
