DADDY, MY HEART REMEMBERS
YOU!
by Connie Smith
I miss the sound of a voice that spoke
to me gently,
I turned around and that voice was gone.
I miss the
touch of a hand that comforts me,
I turned around and that hand was
gone.
I miss the laughter in a voice when I did something silly,
I
turned around and that voice was gone.
I miss the two big arms that used
to hug me and throw me above his head,
I turned around and those arms were
gone.
I miss the presence of a man called Daddy,
I turned around and
my Daddy was gone.
You brought me shiny and new into this world,
I
turned around and my world had changed.
You gave me laughter and good
times,
I turned around and the laughter and good times were gone.
You
gave me family and a feeling of security,
I turned around and that family and
security were gone.
You gave me courage and strength,
I turned around
and my courage was not as strong,
I turned around and my strength was
weakened.
I brought new and shiny life into this world,
I turned
around and my Daddy was not there to share my joy.
I laughed and cried
and yearned for you to be there,
I turned around and my Daddy was not
there.
I am still a part of you and always will be,
I turned around
and my Daddy would always be there.
So maybe with some patience and a
little luck,
I'll be okay with just your memory.
All my
love,
You're first born daughter
