It is the best expression of love for a father from you...
REMEMBERING WHEN I WAS SMALL
YOU HELD MY HAND, I FELT SO TALL
ATOP YOUR LAP, A MIGHTY THRONE
WITHIN YOUR SHADOW WHERE I SHONE
The above lines stolen my heart …. It is filled with emotions… really I like it… Thank you for sharing….
Best

This was really touching. My parents divorced when I was really young, so I didn't see my dad very much. About a week ago, he had a heart attack. And now I'll never see him again. I didn't have a connection to my dad like you had with yours, but this poem still means a lot to me.

He had a lot of problems and I often longed for more attention from him as well, so I can also relate to the not seeing him much part. I am so so sorry for your pain, and for the sudden loss of your father. Truly, I am... ( Huge huge hug )...Be sure to always know that your father loved you, and that any time he spent away from you, you were assuredly always on his mind, as I was on my father's. Sometimes parents have problems that we pay for as their children through loss of time etc. But I know he looks down on you as we speak, and will watch you grow and succeed throughout life. I hope that thought is of comfort to you at this time... Be with family and friends who love you now, take comfort in them, and in time this pain will be more bearable, I promise....
Take care Hannah,

You deserve kind thoughts. And you are more than welcome. (hugs back) :)
Very impactful. Very reminiscent. I can practically see emotions running off these words. My father was never part of my life, so I can't claim to be able to relate. Regardless, the grandeur of this piece isn't lost to me. Such terrible things are too often forced upon great people. Take care, Misty.

I lost him a while back, but looking at my two year old son who has the same mouth as my father and myself, makes me realize that he and my son will miss out.. It is the first time I have written about him in a long time. It proved quite cathartic, so I am glad I did... :) Thanks for the read and the kind words Robert.. As always, they are appreciated..
oh my word what a lovely, heartfelt piece. you can feeel the emotion coming through the words in this one. such a sad poem :( but a beautiful piece of word to remind everyone who reads of your love and respect for someone who made you feel ten foot tall. beautifully done, full marks
