My Father

Firm you stand
As an old Oak tree
Rooted in your beliefs

As wise as an eagle
Whoms decisions are
As profound as the wind
The same profundity
On which are blown
Your leaves of wisdom
I eagerly rake

Progeny of a strange fruit
I "the blood clot of"

Stand in rank
Amongst these mighty Oaks
In saluted respect

Earnestly seeking your approval
Your acceptance
Your love
My father
Your love
My father
I love
