Poem 7
(note: okay, so I haven't been writing daily, but I've got to keep going.)
Gifts From My Father
A logical turn of mind,
An analytical point of view,
The ability to love and work with numbers,
The desire to help other people,
An appreciation of classical music,
A competitive spirit -
When the challenge is intellectual,
Being thrifty,
Comparison shopping,
Rarely paying full retail price,
A love of fishing,
Road tripping over flight,
Natural wonders beat man-made hands-down,
Travel well, eat well, live well.
