Dad

To my dad, a boyish 81-year old. Some of his hobbies: keeping his diary, which would make a wonderful blog, chemistry, alchemy, biology, inventing silly machines, mechanical art

 

Dad

 

You are 81

Going on 18

 

Growing old

For you too bold

 

Your mind

 Forever

Young

 

Your body

Forever

Strong

 

You found

The source

Of

Eternal youth

In the …

 

Pond

Of the

Alchemist

You are so fortunate to still have him in your life! I lost my Dad when I was 6, so I could really wrap the warmth of this genuine piece, around me!

I hope you have shared this with him, for it will become more dear as time goes by. Wonderfully penned!

My best,
Kelly

A great addition. I love the tribute to your father: the poem overall.
