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..
