A Visit

I went and saw my Dad today I felt I had a lot to say I love to stop and visit there Such love and kindness in the air We talked about the children and I mentioned how they've grown I spoke about my Mother and how she hates to be alone I cried and said "Oh Dad I'm scared" For I'm alone now to Oh little one don't be afraid I'll always be with you I felt his warmth come over me at last my heart was still He took away all sense of doubt and took away the chill As in his life he settled me He always had that knack If I could have one wish today I'd bring my Father back...

To a daughter a dad is more comforting and inspiring as she is the apple of his eyes, Sharon.
