Robb A. Kopp Poet Monorhyme

My Stand

Before me, concerned eyes stand. 
Perhaps you’ll someday understand.
You say my “bye-bye” sounds bland.
Proudest of fathers, wish I could stand.	
Watching you grow has been grand.
Please just hold my dying hand.
Don’t forget to pay the band. 
Before my eyes shadows stand.
