Across the Preacher’s Desk: Father's Day

June 13, 2024 - This coming Sunday is the day set aside as “Father’s Day.” The day we honor our earthly fathers. With that in mind, I thought the following poem was appropriate. I don’t know who wrote it, I am assuming it was written by that prolific author known as “anonymous.”

I go through life most carefully
For a little fellow follows me.
I do not dare to go astray
For fear he’ll go the self-same way.

Not once can I escape his eyes,
What’er he sees me do, he tries.
And says like me he’s going to be.
That little chap who follows me.

He thinks that I am good and fine,
Believes in every word of mine.
He must not se the bad in me,
That little chap who follows me.

I must remember as I go
Through summer sun and winter snow
I’m building for the years to be
That little chap who follows me.

It’s something to think about... tbp
