Father's Day
Copyright © James A. Cahoon Jr. All rights reserved.
I want
to thank you for all you taught me and
to forgive you all that you didn't
to praise your fortitude and courage and
to overlook your weakness
to acknowledge your wisdom and
to forget your foolishness
to recall our times of joy and
to dismiss the days of pain
to say these things
because of the many ways
i am your reflection
and because today i saw myself
in the eyes of a little red-haired boy ~ James Cahoon
