“My Father”

Was a surveyor first, but had to change jobs because of the sun… He became an office worker and he planted a fruitful garden… There was always food on our table… Out of the 20 plus years I lived in his home he probably missed a meal with us 10 times… All our meals were taken at the dining table… When my big brother moved out, he had to come home every night for dinner. My father made sure we all went to school… One thing he always said to my brothers… “Learn a trade.” What great foresight he had… Today a blue collar man, always have a job”… My Father passed on, but he left us a great legacy…
