Missing My Dad

It was just Father’s Day and the worst one of my life The first one not celebrated since you have been gone Dad I thought about you all day with sad tears flowing Finding peace in all the great memories we shared. I remember the day we went to the antique store together Reminiscing about going to auctions as a child with you We laughed because I now love antiques but didn’t then The special bedroom set you let me pick out for my room. That day I backed into a sign pole and upset my husband You gave such sound advice saying cars are not important Living your life and spending time with loved ones are! I wish I could go back to that special Father’s Day So many memories of you being a great Dad! I learned so much from you, you were my rock. I could always pick up the phone and get your advice I find myself picking up the phone to call, just for a moment. I sometimes wake up and it still feels surreal you are gone. I know you are no longer suffering and fighting to stay strong I just wish We could have had more time together Dad, but I will forever cherish all the life lessons and memories. 6/28/2020 Contest: In Loving Memory Sponsor: Regina Riddle
