Three More For My Daddy - I Miss You!

FROZEN

Could rewind to before, when
I still had him in my life -
when I could hear him, smell
him, fear him and love him -
watch busted. Numbers frozen,
stuck forever on May 28. The
memories sweep through my mind
like a second hand and stare
like hours from the mirror - I
am my Daddy's girl. Not big
and strong like he was, keeping
time - I miss him so very much -

THE FATHER KNOWS

A little girl cries
because her Daddy
passed away not too
long ago. She feels
lost. Alone. Frightened
without his presence,
near. This is when she
feels Heavenly arms
enveloping her
with a gentle hug,
a reminder from
a Father Who, from
experience, knows
what it's like to grieve ...

FATHER.LESS

... the happy sounds of celebrating
as children everywhere fete their
Daddies, giving cards, ties, other gifts
in appreciation. What about
those that don't have paternal guidance
or their loved one has passed on? We, the
father.Less. It's just another day
to be reminded that they're not here ....
