Donna Newton Poet Rhyme

Dad Remember Me

C'mon dad remember when,
I was seven that christmas
or the present you had sent

Or even that time you took me to the swap meet
buying me such a beautiful dress for that
Easter sunday

I have a memory of when I was a teen, dating a man
that was of your age ..and you threatened me,
 you'd kill em

You must remember when you took me to the park, 
renting that paddle boat and we paddled till our feet
hurt

What wonderful memories you have created with me,
it's devistating that Alzhiemers is going to erase it all
clean

And here real soon will come the day, and yet nothing
will prepare me for the answer on your face after asking 
you for the first time...Remember me daddy?
