Your Strength

If hope is the thing with feathers
That floats on the wind
Your strength is the iron 
bound in roots of an oak
gripped in sand’s shifting whim

What a wonderful thing to say for Noah. Who might he be? I felt so proud of my son Jeremy when he graduated law school two years ago. Nice to see this one. Andrea
