Dad

You are a wonderful inspiration You are a wealth of love and care Every day I walk with values You taught me to hold dear. I  viewed the world through your eyes You have helped me much to grow I cannot remember a time Your love and caring did not show   Today I look back on the years The many times spent apart Thankful  though for childhood memories That will never leave my heart I yearn to be that child again For even the shortest time  For then I will have a glimpse Of my dear dad basking in his youth and prime.

For my Mother

Image
She gave everything she had And still she keeps on giving With shoulders heaving beneath her load She did not complain , Did not utter a hard word, Tending and toiling She gave and kept on giving.  As solid as the eternal oak My mother full of love Her outpouring heart a grateful gift That comes from up above. With tired work worn hands outstretched She gave and keeps on giving. If I could give her all the world It would not be quite enough To make up for the years of toil of  sacrifice she made so much And angels sing their songs above For a giving mother , My mother whom I love. photo: Pexels Dedicated to my mother in appreciation for all her hard work and sacrifice.
