Days Like Today

It's on days like today when I've things on my mind, I'd have dialled your number and we'd talk for a while, We'd have started off general with the weather and life, we'd have talked through the family and the faults of 'the wife', we'd have nattered for hours about this and then that, by the end none the wiser but content with our chat. It's on days like today that it gets me quite sad, that we can't talk for hours but I miss you still dad.

Your father hears you, I lost my dad 11 years ago. I eulogized him in my poem 'Passing Words'. Peace be yours.

Have read your piece Phil - it captures how I feel too - sorry for your loss, which I imagine never diminishes over time
