TO MY SON

The World's Greatest Dad

Gilbert Luther Howington

Gilbert Luther Howington and Son Randy
(Dad and Randy)


I look to you with hope and pride;
  I see your future brightly.
Your deep concerns and aspirations
  I will not take lightly.


The future is a mystery
  That everyone explores.
I'll share your possibilities,
  Embrace your distant shores.


I'll answer you when questions stir,
  Encourage you, implore you.
But life's a challenge shaped by dreams,
  A gift I can't live for you.


So live it well; respect it fully;
  Play your spirit out.
See and then discover
  All the best that life's about.


Remember that you are not alone--
  My love is always there.
The challenge that defines your life
  My heart will gladly share.


You're on a voyage into time,
  A trip to somewhere new.
YOU MAY NOT ALWAYS SEE ME THERE,
  BUT I"LL BE THERE WITH YOU.


-BruceB. Wilmer
