Broken Wing

My father

A man of modesty, humility, adventure, and generosity.

He was hurt, very hurt and in a lot of pain.

He was dashed down at the height of exploration;

And his person was shattered, his soul ripped.

He endured.

He overcame.

He is healing.

He did not know until that day the love that exists for his person.

He questioned the worth of his life and we all shouted back "immeasurable!"

He grieves for his security, he desires this pain undone, waking in the past.

Bravely he perseveres, this man of modesty, forward;

Living can be heavy but he is stronger.
