Very Grateful for

Fathers

a long road of obedience in the same direction

patience to let everyone talk (his patience, not mine!)

honor and respect

hearing the words “we are all we need”

and receiving blessings

recognizing blessings as they are received

and a welcomed, pleasant surprise

in the mint-infused air of Sunday

To him the stars seemed like so many musical notes affixed to the sky, just waiting for somebody to unfasten them. ~Joaquim Maria Machado de Assis
