Thanks Maria..been also enjoying some posts from your lovely friends out there…
Hehe glad to hear that Mich 😁
Love across the ocean to you …. the holidays are the hardest times when one has lost.
Indeed Osyth….especially when there’s just so much and so many memories…ahhhh how i laugh at the fact when i discovered it was my dad who was playing santa all those years…
I lost my father 14 years ago … I think of him every day, sometimes the sadness is still overwhelming and I find myself crying. Then I remind myself that is because I love him so much and because he loves me so much that the pain will never leave me. I truly feel your sadness. We can’t every touch our father’s again but it’s better you see – they are tucked snug in our hearts our whole lives through and we are who we are because they loved us and nurtured us. Go softly 🙏
Very well said Osyth…i am his apple of the eye…and my other siblings are fine with that…for some reasons even when i was already an adult he’d still call me his princess…there are foods which he cooks that i never tried eating again when he died …he is just admirable…its been 7 years…
I dare you to cook those foods. On your own. No audience. Just you. He will smile. X
Oh my i haven’t even thought about it Osyth..but i will try…
It won’t be easy but I promise it will make you feel connected. How is that one can have a soul-sister so far away. I have honestly always felt that you are in some way the little sister I never had. Perhaps our fathers are together waiting some place and urging the connection.
I agree with you on that….maybe they are together…watching over us..smiling..
I urge you to cook those foods. With no audience. On your own with just him. He will love it. I know it. And you will feel him right there with you X
Beautiful Mich. Those few words say so much.
Thanks Davy…
Beautiful.
Thank you..
Beautiful Mich. Christmas is tough without our loved ones. x
Indeed Bridgid…thank you and happy christmas to you..
Your beautiful words have touched my heart, I hope the lovely memories of your Dad will bring peace & joy to your world, Mich! He was so lucky to have you as his daughter…
Thanks Kim..happy to know that ..i am as well very lucky to have a father like him….

Simple but poignant! I love how you use a little amount of words to convey such powerful feelings! Truly artful!
Thank you..happy you like it
Mich your love for your father has made me remember mine. It is 2 years now,I had written one poem on him,I think you have read it.
On that post so many of you all have commented so nice but I have not responded to them as I was in brief,I just couldn’t bear it.
I know what it is to part with Dad….😅
Thanks
I remembere it well Shiva…
such a poignant depiction of dissappointment…
Indeed…thanks for dropping by..
I still miss my daddy every Christmas too.
Ohh i guess this is the time.of the year when we remember them the most.
Big hugs. Holidays are always the hardest.
Mich, this was such a simple but heartfelt share of your feelings about your Dad! Those feelings can sneak up on you and overwhelm you, don’t they! This piece seems like it needs some companion pieces too.
Chuck
Thanks so much for your kind thoughts Chuck..
Aww, so true that during holidays we especially miss our loved ones.
