Thoughts of my Father ~ June 17, 2012


It didn't matter if we were
Paddling after ducks in Lake Shasta or 
Engineering runoff into fanciful creeks
~ 
Setting up camp with Mom every summer or
Building wooden boats for the pool
~
Digging in the garden or
Turning my VW bus into a camper
when I was in college 
  
I always was Daddy's Girl

November 1945

He was my hero
And at times my counterpoint
A quiet man
With a big heart
~ 
Happy Father's Day Daddy
Thanks for watching over me
Then and now
