June 12th…….POEM – “Their Tiny Son” created by N. Elliott Noorlun in honor of the approaching holiday of Father’s Day for our late father, Russell Conrad Noorlun.
Progenitor of, My very life,
In loving tandem, With his wife,
Procured His blessings, When as one,
Brought forth in life, Their tiny son.
One can but only, Adore the man,
Who embodied the aura, “I THINK I CAN”!!
A man of the soil, And his animals grand,
Life all fell together, As God had planned.
In my little boy years, Dad looked so good,
Hair combed just right, Like a handsome man should.
Manly “Old Spice” cologne, Aftershave n showers,
His great-coat with fedora, In those “go to town” hours.
I looked up to Dad, From down near his knees,
Gladly doing his bidding, Just to see him pleased.
In reality, true, Very mortal he was,
But I’ve always loved him, Just because……..
He was MY Dad!!! 😉
