Rich Heflin Poems

Dad...so many images come to mind
whenever I speak your name;
It seems without you in my life
things have never been the same.
...

I don’t know what to say
Or even where to start
But I never would have guessed
It’d be you to break my heart
...

I think about you all of the time,
and wonder, exactly, what is on your mind.
Could it be 'me' that you're thinking of?
If you have feelings, are they feelings of love?
...

When someone special passes on
It does not mean they are gone,
Though they are no longer with us
Their memory still lives on.
...

The first time I saw you,
I knew you were the one.
There was no question in my mind,
after having that much fun.
...

If ever you need me,
I'll be right here,
To chase away the sadness,
And wipe away a tear.
...
