My Daddy

"If I had One Wish" contest

                                                               Just
                                                           one more
                                                           day to sit
                                                       with my Daddy,
                                        a conversation with always a laugh.

                                  Hours on the couch with long talks and coffee,
                                                           a memory
                                                           I see clear
                                                            and miss
                                                               much.
