REMEMBERING MY FATHER LETA

As the pencil is being sharpened 
And the ink is being refilled 
The pieces are coming together
As the memories are being emphasized 
And the truth is being revisited
The picture is showing itself
What a poem?,

It is man
Who had capabilities 
A life full of possibilities 
It is a father
Who had dreams
A life full of accomplishments 
The seed,

As the writing becomes writable 
And the writer acknowledges her writings
The pieces are showing an individual 
As the recollection of events are coming under the surface 
And the thoughts are being revisited
The picture is showing the owner 
What a poem?
