many years had passed
yet thoughts of you linger
your memories, so clear
I can hold you clear.
I miss you, I know for sure!
many years had passed…
the scent of you lingers,
running through the air,
I can kiss you near.
I miss you, I know for sure!
many years had passed…
your soft cuddly touch embraces,
creeping through my being,
I can get closer even a thing.
I miss you, I know for sure!
many years had passed…
hearing your sweet voice,
sincerely saying, “I love you, baby”,
I can say ” I love you too, just stay”.
I miss you, I know for sure!
Three years had passed
leaving me by surprise,
I was hurt, I was broken,
I can cry, I can scorn.
I miss you, I know for sure!
many years had passed…
on this day in a mass,
I spoke to say goodbye,
a daughter’s eulogy, and lullaby.
I miss you DAD, I know for sure!!
P.S.
It’s been three years dad, and I am still missing you. I hope you’re happy up there…Oh by the way.Happy Birthday too!!

This poem appeared in my blog few years ago. I am reposting because i have current readers who may not able to see this.
This is worth the repost.

I wonder what it would have been like to have had a father whose death one would mourn; whose absence one would sense, not as a relief but as an emptiness and a loss… I wonder.
