Six months on, the pain is still so very hard
Each day there's a thought when reading a card
There is this tight feeling crushing me inside
Pain I have to cope with taken in my stride
Very hard to believe for all I know it's true
Hurt, resentment, it makes me feel so blue
For within my heart I know my dad loved me
For who I am, and what I turned out to be
There's part of you here, part of you being there
In all honesty please tell me why is life is so unfair
Sometimes I do forget until you enter my head
My feeling of such loss, with dad you being dead
I want to believe in the Almighty man above
Waiting to see if your sending down your love
Hoping & praying that now your at ease with life
Away from the hustle and bustle of everyday strife
But sincerely Dad I'm trying to get strong
I will with me knowing that your helping me along
Forever you'll be loved with every step I take
Let me know your there or even give me a shake
I need to know your alright, then me I'll be fine
Please please shine down and give me a sure sign
Love & miss you every day
Caroline

thank you he certainly was, I have loads more lol one at a time
WELCOME CAROLINE ~ Thanks for your first poem. Perfect structure in five quatrains and a final couplet all presented in rhyming couplets ~ elegant. The subject of your poem complements the structure ~ a lovely tribute to a lovely Man ~ your Dad ! You express confidence in the afterlife and your Dad still caring in the Heavenly Dimension. The answer lies in your own expression of hope. We only get one Dad & one Mum and they are exceedingly precious to us. Thanks for sharing ~ Yours BRIAN (UK)
thank you very much for ur kind words brian, I have wrote quite a few poems as I have lost both my parents who, i loved very much, my quote is
it's the heart, that rules the head, that rules the hand when writing my poems.
Such a heart-rending verse Caroline - a beautiful tribute to a much missed
Dad. It is so painful yet the happy memories can help grief after a while and I wish you those dear friend.
lovely tribute,he will be with you forever
