I wrote this for my Dad a few years ago:

Just before dawn

as we walk side by side

Shotguns in hand as we

rush to beat days light

Into the woods

so quiet and still

We always made our way

to the top of the hill

Not making a move

as my heart pounds fast

I look down the barrel

and fire a blast

I jump to excitement

my dad smiles with pride

For he's the one that taught me

the great natures of life

Returning from the hunt

Grandma awaits

with a big breakfast table

perfected to taste

As we waved goodbye

and made the turn

The old weathered barn

would long our return

The week went by

so long and so slow

But the weekend was near

and I was ready to go

Returning to nature

I couldn't wait

for it was all at grandmas

on Brady Creek

I love you Dad
