Happy (post) Fathers Day

I wrote this poem the year my dad past away. Its pure corny sentiment, but sometimes feelings are like that. If you would indulge me.





Someday you will


be bigger.





"Measure me, Daddy!"


as I hold the tape.





Someday you will


go to school.





"Bye Daddy,"


as I drop her off.





Someday you will


like yucky boys.





"Why is Brad a jerk, Pop?"


as I explain.





Someday you will


go to the prom.





"Do you like my dress, Dad!"


as I gaze with wonder.





Someday you will


go to college.





"I will make you proud, Da."


as I wave good bye.





Someday you will


be married.





"Don't cry Daddy."


as I walk her down the aisle.





Someday is today
