Hi Michael I lost my dad 14 years ago and like you say it's hard sometimes. Not sure where he ended up but at least he knew we loved him right to the last second before he died. A beautiful poem xx

Thank you Gail. I lost him 8 years ago and some days like today it feels like it just happen. So the only way I know how to channel my emotions is in poetry. This poem is just for here not in my list or will it be in a book. I hope Heaven has a window so he can see it. My life doesn't mirror an Angel so not so sure the two of us will be in the same place when all is said and done. But I keep trying. Xxxxx Michael
