My Dad
He was there, although he was not
we talked, but yet, we did not
it was all for me,but I could not see
He held my hand,
so that I would not fall
the years moved by
I grew straight and tall
On the road of life
new horizons lie ahead
I love you he said-
as he let go of my hand
On this road that we traveled
I now passed him by
for he could only walk
but I now could fly
Caught up in my own dreams
the good times I'd forgotten,
when I was small
he was always there,
my joys to share
he would tuck me in
then kiss me goodnight
sweet dreams, he would say
as he turned out the light
Now I know,
how much he really loved me
but sometimes in my heart
I feel sad
that I never took the time
to really know my dad
[Love you Dad]
your son
