I exist because you allowed me

To become who I am today

I have a life to lead

Because you cared enough to give me

Breath and passion

Desire and love of all that exists

In and around my world

You are my father.

~

I begin each morning

With questions about you

That tie directly into motives

About me; about us

About all that responds to our nature

All of the love and energy we use,

Ties directly to you and you me

You are my father.

~

I know love

I understand that passion is real

Reality exists around me and I feel

The beauty of family

The Grace of my soul mate to heal

We have children because you

Cared enough to allow me to grow

I am their father

~

Because of you and all of your pain endured

Today I am in the eyes of God your son.
