Thank you Angela Ragland !! The Bond! Posted By: Chris Boleman 6/16/2013 The Bond, by Chris Boleman Their callused hands and advice are sometimes rough, Not to mention that their honesty can be a little tough. But there is something about their most gentle heart, That teaches us about life and separates them apart. They can make their point with just a simple stare, Arms crossed, head nod, and a point to over there. It might mean to rinse the steer or clean the stall, Or unload feed, exercise the lamb, or slop the hog. We learned early at the barn their love was so strong, That’s why we’d run to them when something is wrong. They taught us our virtues and values during our teens. Agree or disagree, it was toward them we would lean. Today, final approval is what we still want from them, Even though now that the barn is empty, dusty, & grim. And during those times we didn’t agree all the time, But trust me, as you age, Dad was right; you will find. Who knew a four-legged animal could create such a bond? A lifetime bond between a Dad and his daughter and/or son.
