from earliest memory
your word has been my companion.
Before I could read the upside down book
in the pray-puzzled afternoon,
by day or by night a star you were,
a beacon by storm or by rock or by drowning,
a fireside glow to build a home around,
shadow of friend,
feel of hand,
your touch, tears,
guidance, repentance and restraint.
Young or old, at your word,
I am always a child with you.
Love that last "I am always a child with you."
