~ Beaming
When he was proud
Showing off his daughters
Introducing his loving wife
Helping his grandchildren take their first steps
Performing magic flawlessly
I remember our Dad
Face lit with pride
Beaming ~

(smiles) Awwwwwwwwww, this brought tears to my eyes because of the love you and your sister share for your dad, sweet friend, he must have a golden heart just like you and Nancy do that he passed onto both of you, yay! (kiss on cheek) This is a gleaming piece of love, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Chris, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

~NightShade
Tenderest thoughts
Held close within the heart
Shared now with others in friendship
Such a memoried moment you have shared
Precious words brimming with much love
Pride sheds soft afterglow
Daughterly heart

I'd be sure to edit this and change one word...."attempt"....

This a nice little poem, and very appropriate to the form -- well done.
