I had cause to make a poem for my true father earlier today. The well from which we draw ourselves is deep, deeper than we casually grasp and yet the waters seem easy to move. This proved to be a refreshing surprise, and as typical of challenge, resulted with more questions than answer.
gosh where did that come from!!
