Father

Fathful and true throughout time
A kind and gentle man
The heart and soul of the family
His comforting hands bear so much
Encouraging words softly spoken
Reassuring those around

Wonderful tribute here, Caroline. You've captured an image of kindness. I never knew my father so all I have are t.v. images or beautiful words like these to give me a clue ... smile ... congratulations on your writing being featured here at the Soup!!
