My loving father once wrote
A thing that I must take note.
This passage with a few morphemes
That summarizes heroes’ themes.
He wrote it in a piece of paper
And gave it when I was bitter.
I reflected on it with wonder
How he knows what I should ponder.
Then suddenly I did remember
That a parent knows better.
I know live life with this
By remembering what it is:
"If it is to be
It is up to me."
That is what was written
In his letter well kept hidden.
I've written this piece for a creative writing class. I think I'm going to give this as a present to my father today.
Oh, by the way, Happy Father's Day to all the daddys in our lives.
