I look almost a head taller
than him in that photograph
taken in a forrest from behind
With us on a leash is Pater
the mixed breed that came to
us from a shelter scruffy scared
It is black and white that polaroid
well it was once but now it is faded
yet not the memory of the three of us
It is coloured -this remembrance- richly
of the love between a father and son -sure
and Pater- the three of us strolling in silence
