                                                            Inspired by my love, The  Music Man



                                                                  Dedicated To My Dad.



                                                        Tho gone from this world not a day does pass,

                                                        Memories so clear seem etched in glass.

                                                        Yesterday, last week, last month, last year,

                                                        Clouded with life, busy I fear 



                                                       

                                     

                                                          You think I'll forget to remember you,

                                                          Til my last day on earth  I promise to

                                                          laugh at the good times, forget the bad,

                                                          Treasure my life with you, dear Dad.

                                                         

                                                         

                                                          Times before illness took over your life,

                                                          Aching from sadness, seeing youre strife,

                                                          Struggling to walk, to talk, to explain,

                                                          How you were feeling, constant the pain.







                                                        The day did come that you struggled no more,

                                                          Leaving behind family you adore.

                                                          Grief was too raw, too private to share,

                                                          Sorrow not sweet, just harsh and unfair







                                                          Days into weeks, months into years,

                                                          Time healing scars that once were so clear.

                                                          Less painful memories, of my sweet Dad,

                                                          Smiles, not tears, happy, not sad.

                                                         

                                   

 

                                                          One day it appeared, as if from above,

                                                          A way of showing your unending love.

                                                          A gift from you, kept safe forever,

                                                          Your token of love, my Dad, my White Feather.
