A Kiss- Part 1 Due To Length

Car doors slam, country quiet broken
A race ensues… front door flies open
Dogs start barking, excitedly running

And you were young
Now you're old

Papaw
I open up a photo album,
Seeing your bright face
Filled with smiles, laughter and joy
gleaming with such grace
A scholar in such things
Such as farming, God and love
A savior to those whom you've given
