[hometext] => This is a poem I wrote to my daddy before he died of cancer and it was also read at his funeral
[bodytext] => Seeing him smile after a hard days work sitting in his chair He is the man to all others I would compare. If you look into his eyes, Then you would realize, He’s special - He’s definitely not your average man He jokes, smiles, and makes you laugh even when you don’t think you can. Thinking of those late night water chases And teaching my daughter to lick others faces A giant smile crosses my lips when I think of him The hugs and kisses were never ever slim Always offering a smile and never afraid to share a tear. To imagine life without him is what I fear. I can’t imagine not having those arms to hold me tight Yes, I’m a daddy’s girl, let’s get that right. When he comes around, the sun shines brighter. He has always been a lover and not a fighter. Lately he has had to face the ultimate fight. I don’t understand and I don’t think its right. Why did this happen to my dad? I know that no answer will fit right. I wish you could always be here Dad, Selfishly, I am wishing that you would never lose the fight. I know time is not to be exchanged or negotiated Your time, The time you lived, and this pain of yours, If I had my life to do over, I'd have chosen you to be my dad once more. I know the time will come When your time on earth will be done. I know it sounds selfish but let me just say Cancer or not I wish you could just stay. But I am proud to say even after you are gone In your children and ours you will always live on [comments] => 2 [counter] => 203 [topic] => 39 [informant] => patp [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Grief )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
