Dear Dad

Sitting in silence, one starry lit night,
Beneath an oak tree not far from our house,
Thoughts of time passed,
Flashed into my eyes...

Those carefree days filled with daily delights,
Full of laughter and of joyful jibes,
Everlasting smiles, teasings to the top,
Sadly, time had to interced for that to stop.

Missing happiness and musings of sorrow,
Teardrops falling no more face a glow,
My heart stopped to laugh, broken and torn apart,
From your undue absence, when you had to depart.

Dear dad, fate is such that,
Time steals someone,
Life's sunshine,
Love of one's life...

Tomorrow, Jan.19th, should have been your 79th b-day, but where ever you are now, in heaven I'm sure... Happy Birthday to you!...the best person I've ever known...(1-18-'07)
