Time does dull
The sharp edges
Of goodbye
And, trusting
One precious life
To Faith
To Eternity.
But, I still share
His laugh –
Mine is the same
His fierce love
Expressed
By tirelessly serving
Or that one time
I remember
When least deserved
His words
“I love you”
Still inspiring me
To know I am loved.
Mostly it’s his presence
I miss
A legacy of kindness
My Dad
Who always hoped the best
And, persevered in love
Leaving – a touch of sadness
Reminding me again
How deeply I am loved.
