Father and Son
(for Colin)
So, here I am – your father, son —
Progenitor and heir, it’s true –
My young soul in a body aged
By time’s experiential force;
A stranger in an alien land
And culture which are not my own –
Because, (myself) I’m part of you!.
New inspiration cannot fail
Whilst love’s dear hopes subsist and ‘things
Impossible’ remain to be
Transformed into reality!.
This is the metaphor that sings
And focusses perception’s lens, which blends
Relationships to congruence of sense!.
