Hello, again
Do you hear me
There?
I’m thinking of
you
Today
But then I think
of you
A lot
Most days
remembering
How lucky I was to
have
Dad
You weren’t
perfect
You had your
problems
Who doesn’t?
But you were my
dad
And I was daddy’s
girl
My pops,
Always there when I needed you
Ready with advice
or help
Present
Nurturing my love
of history
My love of Celtic
music and coins
Giving knowledge
The love you
shared with my mother
Inspired me,
It was obvious in
the looks you gave
How much you loved
her
Gestures
The way you
indicated
That you revered
her
Taught me much
I miss you dad
I miss your goofy
smile
Your big-hearted
gestures
Your laugh
But I remember
your last words
I want my kids to
be okay
Will you be okay?
And dad I am
But I still miss
you,
Especially today
Happy birthday Dad
Love you
