Sometimes I wonder if I could spend my whole life in a story and never feel as though I’ve missed a single thing.

Dad

| 2 Comments

Someday I’ll look toward the stars

and ask you how you are

I’ll tell you all about my day

no matter where you are

And then I’ll say, “I love you dad”

and send a kiss to you

Just like always

Just like when

you stand in the doorway of my room

Because I’ll always be your little girl

no matter where I go

And you’ll always be the best man in my life

It just happens to be so

So often do I think of you

when the Leafs are on T.V.

When I see the playhouse that you built

just for Kristy and me

I think of you when I hear Johnny Cash

and every time that there’s a storm

Because I remember the night I heard the thunder roll in

with my dad out on the porch

I like to think I have your smile

Because it’s the best I’ve ever seen

You told me to always keep a sense of humor in this world

So I always keep a piece of you with me

My dad and I
