Dad

To others you were many things

To me, you were just dad

The only one I wanted

The best I could have had

You never said “I’m Leaving”

You never said “Goodbye”

You were gone before I knew it

And only God knows why

In life I loved you dearly

In death I love you still

It does not make it easy

To know you are not around

The only bit of comfort

Is to know you are Heaven bound

I hope you get to meet all the nice poets around here. Starting with me. SKAT :-) Please drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you wish. I would like to be your newest poetry soup "FRIEND" Hugs* SKAT
