Wonder what papa
would have thought now
of his wayward son
now that his son's youth
has long decayed…
might he have marveled
to see his son's
work hung in a museum..
would the thought have passed through his mind
explode like a shooting star
" that has to be impossible
that can't be who you are
it must be an accident
because as long as I've known you
you've never stood still that long
going from here to there
when you arrived there
you were off again
to somewhere…
" it must be an accident
that work it can't be yours
that's way to much work
that hangs on the museum walls "
wonder what papa would have thought
or might he have thought to say
"I knew he had it in him
he just need time to play
plus the time to find the light
that would show him the way… "
guess I'll never know
not at until that day
when we're both hovering
above clouds
watching them gently drift away..
