Fathers
plant the seed of life and
cultivate the seeds for living.
If these two roles split apart by
circumstance or
choice
others step in and step up
many times into deep and uncertain waters.
To be commended are
Single mothers
Uncles
Step-fathers
Older brothers
Cousins
I am certain there are many more...
“It doesn't matter who my father was:
it matters who I remember he was.”
~ Anne Sexton
