Premium MemberTo Dad On Father's Day

Father's Day, for you, dear Dad- was long ago;
Although, fond memories of you appear each day- 
Together with my prayer that you are proud of me.
How rapidly years drifted by when you were here-
Ending too fast when you were only in your prime.
Remembering you as the very best of dads-
Simply, is my joy and my dear gift to you.

Dad, thank you for the years of your devoted love;
All the sacrifices and great times of joy 
You made and gave this daughter- who you loved so much.

each year - a dagger plunges I shed a sad tear and stare memories of dad still clear his voice whispers in my ear gone to soon - the dagger rips dad would not want to see gloom as he waits beyond the moon hush- dream of a blue lagoon water, blue - a swan drifts by surrounded by trees of hue foliage drips wet with dew now write, write for me and you ________________________ June 21, 2020 Poetry/Rhyme/memories of dad Copyright Protected, ID 20-1261-909-03 All Rights Reserved, 2020, Constance La France

Premium MemberMy Dad Is Gone

My heart aches for you more each day
I wish life could have gone another way
I knew you were ill but still holding on
Someday I will accept you are really gone

I stare at your obituary posting and just cry
It was just Christmas and now it’s goodbye
I know you were suffering and now at peace
Saddened our celebrations are forever ceased

I will hold on to my precious memories of you
It’s the only thing to heal my pain that I can do
I hope I will be able to see you again someday
I miss you so much Dad since God took you away

a million years ago
yet seems like yesterday
memories of a winter cabin
on fresh snowy sundays
dad orchestrating
heavenly aromas
of coffee percolating
and toast on wood stove

Premium MemberChristmas Memories

Christmas, as I recall, felt magical; happily hanging up our empty socks. Under the Christmas tree, where piles of gifts, and we'd try to guess what was in each box. Our entire house would smell of gingerbread, pumpkin pies, cookies, and sweet-scented pine. Waking to the smell of Christmas turkey, we'd open our gifts: I'd rip open mine. While Mom was busy preparing dinner, Dad would take a nap on the Chesterfield. Christmas carols played on the radio, and home did not feel like a battlefield. These precious moments in time tend to last, childhood memories of a Christmas past.


Premium MemberFather's Day 2016

It's Father's Day again,
   but you aren't here.
There's no card to be bought;
   no phone call to be made;
      no visit possible.
I miss you, Dad.

It's been three years since I've heard 
your voice speak my name;
   three years since I've seen your smile;
      three years since I've hugged you tight
      and felt your kiss upon my brow.
I miss you, Dad.

All I have are my memories of you:
   memories of your laughter,
   and your droll sense of humor;
      memories of special times spent together;
         memories of the man I loved
         and knew as "Dad".
But you can't hug a memory.
I miss you, Dad.
Happy Father's Day.

Premium MemberA Father Is Immortal- Happy Birthday Dad

Happy birthday Dad



Ever since you left us all in tears,
our hearts ached in grief for years.

Sweet memories of times together,
brush gently as subtle touch of feather !

Longing to touch you and embrace,
while feeling your presence at every place.

Your smiling face in my eyes I embellish,
but wonder why in a blink you vanish?

That in my each cell you are very much alive,
It was too late to realise and end up strife.

Remember the days of joy, None of them so sad,
Today I am wishing you happy birthday dear Dad!
