My Dad and Mom’s love… wondrously precious
Virtuous midst legacy’s prevalence
The best of human’s care, indeed gracious
Expressing sublime kind heart’s excellence.
Mom’s warm, sweet caress --- verily tender
Dad’s hugs, ensuring mentor’s approval
They soothe me, as victim or offender
Turning failures to triumph-upheaval.
Dad, through his stern, truthful assertive voice
Calls for guilt confession of freedom height
Smile from Mom reveals favor for my choice
Granting serenity of bliss-delight.
Parent’s love ... oh, priceless, worthy treasure
God's gift* to cherish and share with pleasure.
*James 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
