You are writing. Yes I am writing. But why? For the ease of my soul. But why? For the time spent well. But why? For my own sake. Father, why do you not spend time with me? Little son. One day you will understand. The line of days runs ever on, the sun will mind it's course, but life is a costly thing my son, and I must pay its price. But Father, life must surely also be, of play and laughing joy? Come outside and play with me, for the day is fading and time is short. Come Father and play with me, let life be patient and mind its cost. Little son. You know I cannot. Go and find your mother, she is blessed with ample time, to stem your flow of questions, and slow your growing heart. Goodbye Father. Goodbye, my son.
This is for those burdened Fathers, and for the man who I hope I shall never be.
