Happy Father’s Day... Please be advised this episode comes with a light trigger warning.

This week's episode is another of the "We Reads," segments. This post comes from a piece we wrote for Defying Shadows over three years ago now. We no long write for this site, but if you're interested in seeing more about them and their work follow the link!

People had reached out and enjoyed the poems we read for the Therapy episode, so I decided to read two others this week.

Ad Finem by Ella Wheeler Wilcox and Casey at the Bat by Ernest Lawrence Thayer

They're two of my father's favorite poems. He used to read poetry to me when I was very small and throughout my years. One of my most cherished books in my collection is a copy of "The Best Loved Poems of the American People." This was the book he read to me from as a child, though it's my own copy not his original one.
