It is the parent thinking about how proud he is of his son, and all the good source come from you and your wife and the One who is above.

You are a master with words! I absolutely adore this piece!

Dear Peter . . .
Time is precious, and especially what we do with it.

Capturing those evanescent moments and fashioning something assimilable that blesses others is one of the mandates of a poet and writer.

You are a giving soul, with deep flowing rivers, and I am one man that is blessed by your life.

Richard

Yes, let your will be done not mine.. probably reveals the true meaning of this poem!

The closer we are to being directors in our lives, the closer we are to our dreams. Teaching children that powerful, compelling goals come true and the world at times seems to be our oyster where we can literally see, smell, taste, and touch success. Knowing what we want in life early on is a reward in itself, Peter.

Sage

Very positive message here and a great policy to raise children under.

Am I seeing something others have not alluded to Peter? Perhaps I am wrong, but I see a loving metaphor in the comparison of the passage of time, yearning love for another, and the love of a child all in acquiescence to the Divine and his plan. How intrictely intertwined the concepts in the reflection of an afternoon. Love deeply and teach you children well...the rest is up to them...accepting His will!
My wishes for a Happy Father's Day,
Taylor ~

a clear-minded poem of a father's admiration, in his effort to keep the tree straight while allowing it to grow on its own ... i like how you presented this experience ...

Great write Peter...had to smile thinking about my dental checkup in Bristol when my own child was the dentist and I the patient...weird feeling though!!

Love Tinka

You are a loving parent with your heart dedicated to your child's health, education and growth. You also take that responsibilty as a right of passahge yourself for many don't. This is the proof that your child's growth is steered in a safe mode until they reach that crossroads where they become responsible.
You're terrific Peter and your offspring are blessed.

(((( Peter )))

what a tribute that is ever surrendering to the goodness and mercy above and here in the hearts we adore. I have a motto, live life to the extreme fullness, never missing the treasure that is within us, always holding, cherishing second by second. Praise our Creator and praise others.. Always give your self strength by living life to it’s best and always honoring every single second. A second is precious, a second will be even more precious when we keep opening, expanding our awareness to all that life truly has to offer us. Yes, I realize we still have to adapt to the carnal, yet we can still open our awareness to the knowledge of the hidden knowledge and praise of the Divine one. This touched me so powerfully. Your heart is so golden and your devotion to the hearts of many is so precious… When we have life opened to greatness, it is because we are understanding our awareness of love, for we are made in love..Thank you Peter for this touching poem..

Peace & Love,
Dove

Dear sweet & gentle man, you have already blessed your three sons, Peter...by being a splendid, loving Dad! And by teaching them Who, your Source really is. Now, just wait...until all those seeds of love you have planted along the way, return, in the form of your first grandchild - and you can actually HOLD, what you have given: To God be the Glory, forever and ever, Amen! love & prayers, Peter, and a HAPPY FATHER'S DAY! ~ rhonda

Mature thoughts. Be proud..
