Poem To My Dad In Memory 04/17/2018 By: RobertBenThoughts.blogspot.com It has been almost a year Since you left us here, For the heavenly relm Your reward is clear. I miss you. Mom is doing better than before She thinks of you daily, She now calls me Bob I just laugh and say it’s Ben. Did I tell you I miss you? The kids are doing fine They miss you too, Careers challenging But they are successful, Did I tell you I miss you? The wife God gave me, She is the Eveready bunny She continues to be amazing She misses you also. Did I tell you I miss you? She does for everybody Before doing for herself, She is like you, Always-there good or bad times, Did I tell you I miss you? Got tear eyed today Just thinking about you, Don’t do it often I just think of the good times. Did I tell you I miss you? I’m doing fine now, I wish you were still here, I’d take you to the mountains again, And take you to church. Did I tell you I miss you? Don’t forget golf I let you win. Myrtle Beach every summer, Deep-sea fishing Two walks to the pier everyday, Did I tell you I miss you? I remember camping Just you and me, Then there was Boy Scouts When it used to be just boys, Did I tell you I miss you? There was Mountaineer football, Mountaineer Classic basketball tourney, Harlem Globetrotters, Pittsburgh Pirates baseball, Did I tell you I miss you? But what I remember most is You lived as you taught, Slow to anger And a great listener Did I tell you I miss you? Church first, Mom second, Kids next, Then work. Did I tell you I miss you? You always believed in me, Even when I gave you no reason, And you always said you were proud of me At the most important times, Did I tell you I miss you? The apple fell far from the tree But I’m giving my best effort To roll it up the hill, I know you’re proud of me and my family, Did I tell you I miss you? Dad, I love you!
