...and the saga continues - Here's one from my very wonderful daughter, Stacie...

Copper Care
by Stacia A. Ness

Copper Love ~ Copper Care
Sitting on his dresser there.
He loved us so with all his might,
Came home late but tucked us in tight.
Catch a smile with such a glow ~
So small with more love than you'll ever know.
A walk in the afternoon
Or watch the flowering sunset 'til moon,
A movie or a late night show ~
Does he see we love him so?
He can not change but only regret
All the wasted years we've spent.
If we could go back to the day he could spare
His Copper Love and his Copper Care.
.......................We love you, Dad

Stacie or Stacia?

I really liked this poem. I am sorry whatever occurred, but it seems like you had a wonderful father. I truly wish you the best!

Hey Artur - Her given name is Stacia - I call her Stacie - and her father was a good one for about 6 years - then he had more pressing issues in his life - though he never really was a very good husband....Ah well, c'est la vie, I guess....

Nan,
A fool, is a fool, is a fool, like a rose is a rose. *L*

It's all wonderful it seems - but the flair your family possesses for poetry is just amazing.

Letting you know I saw this!
