Gone, Not Forgotten #fathersday #poetry

moondustwriter's avatar penned in moon dust

Many of us have lost fathers over the years. This poem was written for those faithful dads.

Driving down the road

of missing you

when I see an old T-Bird

I catch a tear or two

***

I wasn’t old

 first set of ups and downs

riding life’s carousel

you taught me how

***

I switched from trike

on foggy hills

two wheeled wobble

start of uncontrollable thrills

***

A ball of string

I could unwind

but the end of it

I’d never find

***

Love is like that

it’s up and all around

but there was always a dad

to pick me off the ground

********

This archived poem I am posting for Father’s Day for a man who was my father by example. Ken passed away this month and can never be replaced for the handfuls of children he  made a difference to!

Today I thought of him
