George Aul Poet Quatrain

Truth

I fell into a wayside,
I slid into a hole,
I laid in a ditch,
while finding my soul...

I knew I was lost,
I hoped to be found,
you showed me the way,
and put my feet on the ground...

I can never repay you,
I can only hold you tight,
I found my true soul
in a small child's "Goodnight"...

For always and for all time,
I will be ever true to you;
I am your father beyond the end,
beyond my last breath "I love you."
