Whenever i looked at my father,
You know what i saw?
I saw a dad.
I insist i saw-
I wasn't told, you know-
He was a father in a man.
Further into being a father,
He was a dad.
In the outer world,
A man, he was.
But in my world
A dad, a father and a man;
A true one.
At least in my childhood eyes.
Cherret Leakey.
A well penned poem written with insight. A nice piece indeed. From the eyes of children dads are seen not only as exact men, they are also seen as supermen. Thanks for sharing. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.
