The children had their thought
the ingredients essential
A little bit of love, or a whole lot,
care, oh we definitely need that,
help when they struggle
being respectful of their needs
their views given weight
Real, with flesh and bone,
blood and life
so we make a good father
or so was their recipe

Luke 15:11-32, Lectionary Year A, Prodigal Son,
