A Word

A word was lost
in a sentence vast.
The eye that read it
moved too fast.
It shed a tear 
for it's daddy dear.
Writer, writer,
why'd you put me here?

Sometimes a word will get looked over, in the rush of reading. "Slow down," it says. "Remember me !" :) This is cute and clever, all at the same time. Oh, I did read 'every' word within. :) Brandy
