Dear Subscriber:
Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of
view. The theme for this week is Father’s Day, which falls on June 18.
Today’s poem is a Father’s Day poem for a divorced father
who does not have custody of his child.
I welcome comments on my poems at

Yours,
Nick Gordon
Forget the fantasies of fatherhood
And take a look at what your life has wrought.
The choices you have made, both good and bad,
Have added up to … Well, you can add.
Enduring love will bring what you have sought,
Regardless of the pain the years have brought,
Sustaining what can only end in good.
