Forgotten fathers and mothers
who dropped out of the trees,
stood upon the open ground
with a stone in hand
looking up at the sky.
Unnamed fathers and mothers
carried their babies
out into the world
building fires on the ground
walking to the ends of the earth.
Forgotten fathers and mothers
surviving the hardships
I thank you all
for your struggles and lives
and the gifts you passed to me.
