I miss you Dad

I think of you every day with joy and sorrow

Joy that I had you in my life for so long
sorrow that you are gone

You are not forgotten, nor will you ever be
as long as there is breath in my body

I miss you now. As time goes by I will miss you more
until we meet again

 

It doesn't matter who my father was; it matters who I remember he was.
-- Anne Sexton
