Wisconsin Bluffs Without Dad

my bluffs are golden
winter creeps near
memories surround me
cause me to tear
each winding road
I look up ahead
wonder and glory
"Son, have no fear!"

It is very poetic. And the way of conveying of the character`s feelings make me believe these lines. Good Luck. Oleg

I was feeling sad tonight thinking about my first Father's Day without Dad. Your poem helps me realize he would have wanted me to look forward to the rest of my life with "wonder and glory." I know there is sadness here, but it's good to focus on the positive, eh? Happy Father's Day to you, James. Love, Carolyn
