Poem: My Daddy is a Survivor Too

7/10/2011

My daddy is survivor too...
Category: Writing and Poetry

My daddy is a survivor too,
Which is no surprise to me.
He's always been like a lighthouse
That helps you cross a stormy sea.

But I walk with my daddy each day to lift him when he's down.
I wipe the tears he hides from others;
He cries when no one's around.

I watch him sit up late at night with my picture in his hand.
He cries as he tries to grieve alone,
And wishes he could understand.

My daddy is like a tower of strength.
He's the greatest of them all!
But, there are times when he needs to cry...
Please be there when he falls.

Hold his hand or pat his shoulder...
And tell him it's okay.
Be his strength when he's sad,
Help him mourn in his own way.

Now, as I watch over my precious dad from the
Heavens up above...
I'm so proud that he's a survivor...
And, I can still feel his love.

    The majority of all these entries were written by Darrel's father, Stephen.  For those that are not, efforts have been made to give proper credit where it is due.

    The bulk of the posts are in the June 2011 Archives Section, as that is when I transferred them over to this site.  Category Tags should allow you to find entries easier.

    I've tried to correct spacing issues on many of the entries, as most of the older ones have been copied from different sites I've used in the past. I apologize if some have been overlooked.
