You held my small hands when I was small,
You caught me affectionately when I fell,
In laughter and in sorrows,
In sunshine and in rain,
you have always been with me.
To be heard without saying a word,
To be hugged when I am blue,
Your lovely smile, and gentle laugh,
made all the difference of my day.
Your endless knowledge and caring advice,
always helped me find my way,
In you there was no equal,
And because of all the love you gave me I'll never be alone.
People say that you have gone far away me DADDY,
but I know that you can't leave me,
You can't die until I do,
because you live in me.
I feel like crying,
but I ain't missing you,
Because I can't miss me.
No matter how tough life seems,
you're still special beyond compare.
I know you are watching over me.
Until we meet again.
I have just read your first poem posted here and have been emotionally touched! You have beautifully expressed your love and reverence for your demised daddy. As I write this, by strange coincidence, today is the 27th death anniversary of my beloved father. He was my mentor, my friend, philosopher and guide. I cordially welcome you to this realm of poets. Your poem is good and thanks for the note. Best wishes, happy writing!
