John Franklin Ziebell Thomson Poems

Son,
I have known you and loved you from the beginning.
Everyday and every moment I have held you in my heart.
Though time may pass and the years turn forward, the sum will never change.
...

For I have stood where Longfellow once wrote,
while ferrying his pen, whose poems we now quote.
Under the lighthouse vigil of the deep sea ni,
whose headlight shines sharply on ships passing by.
...

Am I a dreamer?
Can this world ever unite and live in peace?
For was it not a dream that inspired the pilgrams to find a new land away from the bondage of another mans belief?
And was it not a dream that inspired man to walk on the moon?
...

'Twisted trees from twisted roots,
with twisted reasons of twisted truth.
Twisted lives from twisted fate,
with twisted love of twisted hate.'
...

I AM.
I AM your father,
I AM your mother,
I AM your sister,
...

Hail holy Mary, Mary mother queen,
Holy mother Mary, will you pray for me?
Blessed is the honor given to the earth,
the virgin Madonna's child savior's birth.
...

I AM.
I AM your father,
I AM your mother,
I AM your sister,
...
