To see him one more time
What would I say?
Or do?
Said within a hug so tight
How long can I hold on to you, Daddy?
I've missed you so much
Why did you have to go?
Do I still make you proud?
I try
They ask about you all the time
I am glad they remember
Your legacy
You loved
You played harmonica
You rode your bicycle backwards
Made the Donald Duck voice
Made us laugh
I learned so much from you
I wish you were here to teach them
What you taught me
Family-how much it matters
Promises-kept
Creation-beauty
Sky- it's open unsuffocating hope
Love-deeply, expressively
Unending...
Vanished.
