A day does not pass that a memory of my Dad does not come to mind a year after his passing at 98 and 360/365ths years old.

I used to stop by his house and open the refrigerator to see a dinner plate with two slices of bread on it.

Hmmm why was he doing that ?

Fast forward to today. Have been toasting heavily seeded bread and finding that is really tasty but abrasive enough to cut the roof of your mouth.

Ahhhh so thats why !

Thanks Dad.

TEACH YOU CHILDREN WELL

You who are on the road
Must have a code that you can live by
And so become yourself
Because the past is just a good-bye.
Teach your children well,
Their father's hell did slowly go by,
And feed them on your dreams
The one they picks, the one you'll know by.
Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry,
So just look at them and sigh
And know they love you.
And you, of tender years,
Can't know the fears that your elders grew by,
And so please help them with your youth,
They seek the truth before they can die.
Teach your parents well,
Their children's hell will slowly go by,
And feed them on your dreams
The one they picks, the one you'll know by.
Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry,
So just look at them and sigh and know they love you.
