Dad

I love my Dad although he's dead. That matters not, he's in my head. The things he said. I seemed to grab his full attention. From the moment of conception. Perhaps because I almost died. Along with mother, while still inside. Could it be because of me being such a little cutie? We share so many common traits. Music...wit..was it just fate? I feel him with me, vibrations strong. Encouraging, enabling, leading me on. To be the best that I can be. Not held back, set free. I am so blessed to come from you. Thank you Dad, I love you too.x

Hi Kevin! I'm on the margins of Poetry Soup for a long time now myself. I just can't seem to get back into the swing. I'm hoping the darker evenings will encourage me to focus more. So kind of you to comment on this one this evening. It's my birthday tomorrow and he has been on my mind.

We seven children were party to their to their terrible fights. There was always drama. Still, in their own way, they did their best. Both with amazing strong characters clashing like the titans. Daddy often said "Fighting cats have kittens." Thank you Jan.
