Notes About The Poem

 

WRITE A BEAUTIFUL SHADORMA / CONSTANCE LA FRANCE

HE SHALL STAY CLOSE ABOVE

“Death makes gone a good Daddy’s body but not their light strong enough to spend endless time shining for their child."  .... poet


Not one time
had weighty concerns
claimed his face.
No doc words 
seized confident displays from
his eyes or gestures.

Hurt hit her
hard while her dad lay
pondering
it seemed each
health test result returned but
not with fear or scorn.

Eyes on hers,
He last sighed, ‘daughter,
when I go
I shall stay
close and above as star glow,
sparkling joy for you.’

Andrea Dietrich March 30, 2026 at 4:30 PM That last verse is such a lovely thing he said to you. I think you were luckier than me in the dad department. Was this for a contest? Oh wait. It's for Constance's. Indeed, a beautiful shadorma. In your quote, use shining (no double n)
