AN UNION OF OPPOSITES

From past to the future, a destiny of the progeny

A relationship that is dear to the heart of many

From the strengthening of the heart to the tendering of the soul

An exchange of gifts that makes a human whole

A pillar to one and an anchor to the other

A support they are to withstand every harsh weather

An age old wisdom to child like innocence

Their path of life is simpler in each other’s presence

One a sailor full of vigor, another a battle tested old boat

They sail together, so that in the ocean of life they may float

From the bantering in the morning to the playfulness in the night

An wholesomeness in their connection, that turns darkness to light

Walking their journeys hand in hand, their every smile is so bright

To bring these souls together, I realize, was a decision so erudite

This is the story of a father and son duo

An ‘UNION OF OPPOSITES’ that I helped to sow
