Father and Son

Father and Son

Father and son
Work side by side
Learning new things
Father never to chide.

Father loves boats
Son loves them, too,
Father has taught him
And gives him a clue.

“This piece goes here,”
He says with such pride
Son glued it on crooked
Then began to cry.

Father is gentle
With his words and his eyes
Son is cherished
Because Father is wise.

This post is for Kevin’s No Theme Thursday (05/16/24). NTT is my one of my favorite things! Kevin makes such awesome pictures to choose from, and this time, I found this picture speaking to me the most.

Sidenote: I’m working on Old Stone, and my mods folder appears to be fixed after completely redoing it twice. If you know, you know. lol Stay tuned and happy simming….

Thank you so much for reading, liking, lurking, and commenting! You are important!

If only I wish that sailboat had been a baseball mitt in my childhood life. I like the simple messages you portray so understandably in your blogs.

Thank you so much. I appreciate your kind words. My dad and I played catch with a softball all the time. One of my happiest memories was the Christmas I had barely turned 10. My aunts and uncles, my parents and grandparents all got me baseball stuff; a mitt, bat, a new ball that was smaller, etc. Maybe I’ll show a picture of that Christmas and write something about it.🌸

So beautiful, Kymber, like a Norman Rockwell moment.

Thank you.🩷🌸 Kevin’s picture felt kind of like a Rockwell to me, too. So I wanted the poem to have that feel, too.

Oh my. So many beautiful lines, but my favorite–“Son is cherished”

Reply

Thank you, Jacqui. I first thought of that line as describing my grandmother. But then I thought, that should apply to everyone, especially children. 🩷🌸

Very, very nice, Kymber. I’ll be honest, this isn’t something I had growing up, but it gives me a warm feeling within.
