Dad's Last Poem

Dad,

You talk about fishing, fishing for things that you want in life. And for those who fish who dont pray to our Lord first will not get what they want. They come back empty handed, no fish. Yes, we must ask and pray. Having faith in the Lord. You had so much Faith, Dad. All you went through, losing your mother and father, but you still did not lose your faith. Not all in the family follow this path Dad. They lose something and lost their faith. Of course, that is the road they choose to follow. It is the road they followed in the past and they continue to follow to this day.

I see you struggled to write this poem with your sickness and the heavy medication you were on. Your handwriting is so different. But you had faith and you got it down on paper. It is my job to publish your poem so that all can hear your voice, not all will listen.

Forever your loving son,
Chendo
