"...I want to know, have you ever seen the rain..." That was my father's favorite song by the group 'Smokie' I heard it on the radio yesterday and it hit me again that my father is really dead and that I will never get to see him in this world...
Daddy's gone!
Daddy's gone to return no more
Never again will there be a moment in time
when I will catch his eye as he looked over to me
There will be no bobbing of heads from us two
while singing to the cassette tape
no squealing and yelling at the top of our lungs
no long, brown hero fingers drumming on the stearing wheel
and I want you to remember what I tell you right now
Listen, when next you see or hear the rain outside your window
that's what my daddy went to do
Daddy went to bring down the rain.
A very sweet remembrance and tribute, Bernice. I remember that song sung by CCR (Creedence Clearwater Revival) and it is one of my favorites. Thank you for sharing your sentiments. Love and best wishes to you,
Just when you think you have it all together, something happens that brings the sad reality of loss back into your life - I know. The 4th of July was probably my Daddy's favorite holiday - he loved the sound of mortars being shot off, and fireworks - he passed that love down to Karen and me, his daughters - this was our second Independence Day without him. :( Each time we see fireworks, we think of him - and we miss him. A beautiful, loving tribute to your Daddy, I bet he'd be proud to know his daughter loves and misses him very much.
Bernice your father was a lucky man to have you for a daughter and as a father and grandfather I can tell you without a single doubt in my mind he would be as proud of you today as he was when you were born. We cannot bring our parents bach but in our hearts and minds they never really leave, so now and then sing his song for him and blow him a kiss on a cloud...he is there.
Bernice, what a lovely poem about your Daddy. He is all around you, watching and protecting you and your beautiful little girl.
Lovely song to remember him by. Go in light, love, and peace,
