In The Hold Of Heaven Poem by Susan Lacovara

In The Hold Of Heaven

Rating: 4.0


Making the most of ordinary days
Yearning for my father's voice

Forgetting nothing of his tenderness
An allegiance to reciting his songs
Time has turned my hair slightly towards his gray
How a daughter moves with the heaviness of an orphaned heart
Expecting the ten o'clock call that no longer comes
Remembering the man who loved and raised my soul
