A beautiful tribute to a special father that will be missed!
Writing can be a healing process in many ways and serve as an outlet for your emotions.
That is how I started writing poetry myself to heal and to have an outlet.
Sorry for your loss.
I am sure he is in a better place and is looking over you as a guardian angel.

Thank you Josie. Yes it is healing to write and also why I started. Thank you for your comment. x
Watch over us daddy darling
Shedding raindrops of tears
As with your passing
Smiling with the sunshine
And laughing with the thunder

Thank you for reading and your comforting comments x
I am so sorry for your loss. Your father seemed like a great man, and I'm sure he is residing in the heavens, smiling down on you, proud that he has such a loyal, wonderful daughter. May he rest in peace.

Beautifully said...I know how you feel thought it took me a while before I was able to articulate my feelings poetically. The fact that you were able to compose such a stirring tribute in such a short time is an incredible statement of character. I wish you and your family all the best.

Fiona, your poem is, what true poetry is meant to be, from the heart, conveying the emotions of the poetress, who wrote it. There is no need to be apologic, for this. For you took me, back to the night, my own dad died, in November 1998. He was, the pillar, which I relied upon, during my bouts of depression and anxiety.
I hope, during your time of grieving, you're surrounded by love ones and close friends. Thank you, for sharing this very personal moment with us.

Fiona, I think this is an absolutely beautiful tribute to your father. We are all a little disjointed when something like this occurs. I am so very sorry for your loss. Be strong my friend.

Thank you Jack, for all your support and for listening to my tears. You are a friend indeed x
I started writing in August having never been interested in or even looked at poetry before!
My writings come from my emotions (mostly) and I find it cathartic to put words to paper.
Thank you for.. more..
