Sharon Ruebel Poet Rhyme

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...
