Father's Day 2023

A child named future sired by the present from a lineage past
Fresh ink born out of a pen inspired by the stone cast
A yarn wading through the pulling strings to learn the ropes
Through the words that make the promises that build hopes
Is the same way fathers father fatherhood and fatherlings
That make generations of prophets, priests and kings
And the honourable ones of skill, will and zeal that fit the bill
Having dominion over the sandy coasts and lush hills
As is God's mandate to all and those to come
That we may be found upright by the Almighty's plumb

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY
