To learn from you
simple things
to learn how to fish
also a lesson in patience
self-reliance
to learn, how to wait
for just that right chance
and snag the moment
as we snag that fish
To learn from you
simple things
to learn, how to tell a tale
tell a joke
to hold the listener's attention
until the moment the punch line is delivered
to learn
communication
as we hold the moment
To learn from you
simple things
caring for the animals that is our charge
keeping them fed and watered, training them
teaching us
not only how to care for pets
but in a sense, teaching responsibility
to make us ready
for children of our own
To learn from you
simple things
taking care of the material things
putting them away
making sure they are in safe locations
we learn, how to make things last
right up until that last moment
when there is no more
to know, we have not been wasteful
with what we hold
To learn from you
simple things
like love, respect for others
to laugh, to play
to work and learn
simple things
that make this life
more special
thank you dad
for those lessons
on all the simple things
