It
was just a
walk
to the bay, where
silver
water shines, and
steel
wool clouds cover the sky
perfumed
with the scent of the salty sea,
today
it is the fragrance of parting.
You
are my son,
Tall
man and strong,
I
see my son,
I
see my boy,
in
the man you have become.
I
am content with who you are.
My
heart swells like the sea,
inflated
by this tide of love,
these
few moments together
before
you fly away from me again,
a
free bird.

A lovely poem for your son Kathie! He must be proud of his mom!
