Best Fathervoice Poems
I sit here and listen
For your voice in the air
Breath frozen within my chest
Stolen noises dismissed without care
It is your first whisper
It is your first wail
Fiercely you make your call
First Love's grasp from your heart you entail
New upon the world an infant's silhouette
My eyes upon you are tempted to spy
But I hold them shut tight
For I yearn to hear your first cry
Treasured melodies for which I wait
Memories and lyrics none easily compare
I sit here and listen
For your voice in the air
