UntitledA Poem by Jenni BaileyMissing my Airforce Daddy!"Daddy needs to go" Someone says "He will be back" The baby girl doesn't know In uniform and all Daddy goes to the door This baby girl is by the door, sitting against the wall Daddy couldn't turn away from his daughter Waving through the door This baby girl was fighting to see her father This time, Daddy had to drive away The truck was gone now This baby girl is wondering "when is Daddy coming home today" It's 6:00pm, Daddy is home It was a busy day for Daddy This baby girl doesn't have to go to bed alone Daddy was still in uniform, still had to go, he still drove away, and he still came home today It was a busy day for Daddy This girl needed to go, left dad sitting against the wall, and fighting to see his daughter, and she turned away This girl knows Dad is home She isn't by the door, she fighting She's wondering "why is Daddy home?" She lays her head on the pillow It's 6:00am, backpack and all This girl needed to see Dad at the window
