Footsteps In the Hallway

Foot steps along the wooden floor Heard from the outside of my bedroom door I'm Wondering who it could be Hopefully it will be my daddy Away with work for months on end Leaves me pining on the end of my bed Missing the summer garden games To the family BBQ with high reaching flames The summer walks down by the riverbank The river as clear as if looking at a fish tank The trees above my head absorbing the sun Allowing me and my daddy to have fun Then, the bedroom door opens wide My heart races as if on a joyride My daddy was home from his time away Yes! Daddy’s home, its time to play..
