Who can understand the love of the father?
A Father's Love

As the love of a hen to her young
As the love of a flower and a bee
As the love is in a lover's song
is the love of the father to me.

As a mistress look with content at her makeup
and a master with pride at his horse
As a child and with joy his gift take up
is the contentment of the father with us.

May we ever know the love of our father
and have the blessings of it to show
May his grace and mercy be harder
And his anger forever slow.

Ebun.
