"DEAR DAD"
by Joanne Boyle
Another year has passed
and here we are again.
Me writing you a card
and trying to explain.
and teach us right from wrong.
To offer their support
and show us how to be strong.
You did all of that for me
and I just wanted you to know.
You are always with me
wherever I may go.
Fathers day isn't easy.
I'm sorry it is this way.
I wish that I could hug you,
on your special day.
Instead I'll write some memories.
I'll put the letter in the card.
I'll meet you in the moments.
The ones that I find hard.
I remember when I was little.
I am sure you remember too.
When I couldn't ride a bike
Until you showed me what to do.
Can you remember that time
when we hid away from mum.
How she jumped a mile
because she didn't see us come.
Oh we laughed so much that day.
In fact we laughed a lot.
I'm glad of all those photographs
that mum made sure she got.
I think ill take them out today
and remember the way we were.
Me and mum will sit together
and pull you up a chair.
I'll put this card with all your others,
and I'll sign it off with love.
I'll put it in our pillar box
and address them to above.
********
Happy Fathers Day in heaven."
