The sounds of familiar footsteps coming in the front door can be so welcoming when one is alone and worried. It can light up your whole life.


                  Daddy's Footsteps

There it is, I hear the sound,
The sounds I've heard before.
Yes I think it is my daddy,
He's coming through the door.
 
I'm oh so happy to see him,
I run with arms open wide.
I know I am safe in his company,
He's strong, he is my guide.

The sounds that are so comforting,
The ones we've grown to know.
Like breathing in fresh air,
A voice we'll always know.

The things some take for granted,
Like the footsteps at the door.
The familiar steps of daddy's feet,
As he greets me across the floor.

Even if I cannot see that far,
My ears will not lie to me.
They'll help me know the footsteps,
That belong to my Daddy.

Warm endearing write that any Father would love to hear from his daughter and you are right that is what a Daddy should be the warm safety of open arms always there for them. Great write Rose.

Let this coming of age story of a boy named Bean take you back to a simple time. Set in a small southern town in the 1960's, encircled by a river and gleaming white cotton fields.
