Happy Father's Day to all the Father's out there. If you are fortunate enough to have your Dad show him how much you love him on HIS day. Its too late for me....but maybe not for you.


Poem Artwork

So many things I'd like to tell you
So many things to say
I wish I could go back in time
And bring back yesterday.
So many words left unspoken
That I wished I had said
But I turned my back on you
And walked away instead

Forgive me Daddy 
For years I never talked to you
Empty days it must have been
A struggle to live through
The tears you must have
Cried in your loneliness
So many hours lost to us
So many hugs we missed

I can't bring back the moments
I could have shown you love
So many reqrets Daddy
The Lord called you above.
I can only say I'm sorry 
For all the wasted years
For the sadness you endured
For all the falling tears.

Such a moving and honest poem, also very well written. Regret is one of the hardest things to live with, but your love for your dad is obvious in this poem. It is so hard to lose someone when there is unfinished issues or regrets. Big hugs, God bless. Baz

A loving Father's Day poem to your father. I think he hears you and knows of your sorrow here on earth; one day you will be together once again and able to have the hugs that you missed. Lovely poem, you show a wonderful open heart of regret. Well Done. Joy L. Hale

A lot of us live with regrets about things we didn't say or do with our Dads that have passed away....misunderstandings that grew completely out of proportion....differences of opinion that put a wedge between father and child....well done!

Heartfelt writing, Linda; well penned as always! Your words/thoughts mirror mine exactly, to the letter: there's so many things I'd like to say to my own daddy, but he died three years ago; how I miss him ... :(

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Texas, Karen Lynn. :(
