" My Daddy "

Folder: 
Lost Loves-Death



When I was one year old,

my daddy passed away.

I miss him so much,

every single day.

I'm nine year's old now,

it's really hard for me.

To go through my life,

without my daddy here to see.

I want to tell him about,

thing's he need's to know.

Like school and other thing's,

and that I Love Him So.

This will never happen,

what I want in the end.

So I often look at his picture,

and from there I pretend.

I tell him everything,

even though it's not for real.

I tell him that I Love Him,

and exactly how I feel.



To Gabino Fraire--Through The Eye's Of His Son --Gabino A. Fraire

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This Poem was wrote from the heart of my son. He ponder's at the picture of his daddy alot, pretending! He know's the truth he just ignore's the fact and still talk's to the picture. I told him that it's good to express his feeling's. It's better to express them than to hold them in! Don't you think so?

I too lost my father at a young age, and I still miss him to this day.

This was so nice and a touching story and good for your son for all of the above!! He really did a great job and yes, venting it out is a GREAT thing for us all. Thanks for sharing! V.

Yes, it is better to express your feelings. If I didn't think so, I would not be a poet. If you did not know this to be true, you would not be a poet. If there were no poets, the world would be an awefully bland place to live. So, we must express ourselves, for our own sanity, and for the sake of those we love. My heart goes out to your son. It must be so hard to go through life without a dad. May God bring older Christian guys into his life to act as "Father-figures," and may God bless you tremendously for all the sacrifices you have made, and continue to make for your son.

In Christ,

T. W. Smith
