    In My Father's Hands
    When I was born, I was so small
    so I fit in my father's hand.
    It made me feel secure,
    as he rocked me night and day.
    As I grew older, not much changed
    because no one made me feel
    like I felt being held
    by my father's hand.
    Imagining to be a princess
    walking with the king
    to a fairy land.
    Now the roles have changed
    but the feeling never will,
    as I hold my father's hand,
    for support when he is ill.
    Even though he is old,
    and his hair turned gray,
    I feel so proud
    to hold my father's hand.

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
