Where’s Dad?

Where’s Dad?
Where’s he gone?

Is he hidden in plain sight? Has he taken flight like a careless bird getting away to warmer lands oblivious of the tiny brood left behind?
Is he tending the nest with Mama Bird?
Where’s Dad?
Where’s he Gone?

Is he raising the standard? Has he spoken and taught like the leader he is, ensuring his offsprings have a roadmap to follow?
Is he being that example to his children?
Where’s Dad?
Where’s he gone?

Is he living his life? Has he lost his way inside his head unware, uncertain, of how to retrieve his Staff and re-emerge as the one we remember?
Is he longing to return to his home?
Where’s Dad?
Where’s he gone?
