Letter Dear Court

Letter Dear Court

A Poem by lee von cleef
"

A page that fell from the box,I tipped over, to share with your sons and daughters. A Moms window into Men.

"
Dear Court,
Our family and "Symbol Girl" just a short note from a guy who never writes, but, thinks he can.
I love you. I am sorry if you "catch" my weak points;Stacking,Procrastinating, Not communicating,
Eating, and total disregard for money . I hope you keep soaking up the good ones; Looks, Warm heart,Thinker,Pressure producer,Poet,Reader,Athlete, and Diplomat . All we have in life is each other.
And what is life? The journey ! Sop it up! Morning and night.The crisp sunrise,Sticky afternoon,
Windy over cast sunsets ,Long Dull People, and your Mom.
NOT DULL is she ?Talk about a life full reckless  abandon.She lives more in one day then most do in a week.
NOT Spelling is a kick too.

Me who knows where  this will print? Make good choices. Live with your bad ones. Stand tall.
Breathe.Now again deep.
Don't be like the rooster who thought the sun had risen to hear him crow. Wake up,listen the world
is talking to you.
H. Greeley  1811 -1872
Go west young man,and grow up with the country.
Me Dad,"Keep building a good foundation, Wear good shoes,Stretch your mind,
Know your Passions !
John Haynes Holmes- " The Universe is not Hostile,nor yet is it Friendly, it is simply indifferent"
Dad,Prepare yourself to react without thought,through slow deliberate practice. Sweat the
tears of passion.Rise up and Smile ,Bring  " it"  on......
May god hold you in the palm of his hand.
I AM,
Love your Dad.

Bittersweet, this tugged at my heartstrings. Tough read for me on this day, yet a wonderful message of how we should greet each day whilst we still have the time to embrace life. Just lovely, this is going from my heart to the shelf to savor again and again.
