A Father’s Day Poem

’A Father’s Day Poem
	
	Through the glean of ocean sprays
	Lights shed upon th’ valleys lay
	A world of right and wrong.
	
	Upon that world there is a crown
	For ones who know wh’ is renown
	A love wrought for a song.
	
	Love knows no treasure great or small
	That is wrought by men’s many laws
	F’ whose distant cities long.
	
	Cities lay upon a hill
	Cast by ocean mists be still
	White rains to look upon
	
	For emerald sheaths and spires
	Raise to rye ruby towers
	Yet to us t’is a fog.
	
	Long the fellows wait for more
	The ocean’s breath, distant shores
	Awaitings ne’er be wrong.
	
	For God ‘as giv’n a life
	And you time to see the light
	Of ‘t prospers of thy sons.
	
	Happy Father’s Day
