Some things can only be understood from the other side.
You didn't see it then - the exhaustion behind the patience, the love behind the silence, the sacrifice tucked inside an ordinary Tuesday. You were too young, too busy, too close to notice. But you're older now. And somewhere along the way, without anyone announcing it, you began to understand your father differently.
Letters to Dad: Poems from the Other Side of Childhood is a collection of poems written for every grown child who has ever caught themselves doing something exactly the way their father did - and felt, in that moment, the full weight of being someone's child.
These poems are for the ones who remember the bleachers, the toolbox, the Saturday morning sounds of a house still sleeping while Dad was already up. For those who recognize their father's hands in their own, his phrases in their mouth, his quiet strength in the way they face hard days. For those who have things they meant to say - and haven't yet.
Some of these poems are grateful. Some are complicated. All of them are honest.
Whether you're searching for the perfect Father's Day gift, Christmas gift, a birthday tribute, or simply a way to finally say what words have never quite captured - Letters to Dad will say it for you.
A book to give. A book to keep. A book that says everything you've always meant to.
