Daddy  
You didn’t know what was happening to you
But you always had a smile when we came and visited
That would make me happy too

Daddy
Sometimes I wonder what you do now since you’re in heaven?
I know it’s a better place up there
Because you’re not in pain

Daddy
You never lost your smile
Even though you were in pain
You never showed that you were in pain

Daddy
You were a hero for me
You taught me just because I have a disability
Doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy my life

Daddy
I’ll be graduating next year
Leaving the place where you left me in 96
Were mom cried and you said “bye see you on Friday”

Daddy
I’ll never forget you
You were so special to everyone
Even though cancer was killing you

Daddy
You’ll always be missed
You’ll always be remembered
You’ll always be in my heart

Minna

Learning how to walk, Learning how to talk, are the hardest thing to do in a baby life. Learning how to walk for me is the hardest thing to do.

It is great that you think of your father in such a glowing light. To have such a fine piece written about him would truly make him proud.

This was touching. Minna, it's admiring to see the way you've cope with your father's passing. I hope to see you continue to be well with your life.
Until your next post.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

I know he'd be proud of you...of this I have no doubt...
I hope to hear more from you soon.

I'm just glad that now this rainstorm has ended, and I can see the rainbow once again.

Minna, this is so sad.  Very, very touching poem.  This one's going back up to page one where it belongs.  Thanks for sharing.
