My daughter and I share our poetry. One day, this showed up in the mail from her to me. I was very surprised and pleased. The Poet by ©Bridgette Blumanthal 1999 My father sends his love in the mail It's hidden within the lines Of the poems he shares with me It's his way of letting me know Without having to say it That I am always in his mind And though he may falter At conversation He gives a greater gift His creativity refreshes me At the end of my day And as I sit in the quiet Reading the lines he strings Together like delicate pearls Often moved to laughter Sometimes mingled with tears His heart, his soul, His essence are revealed I know I am loved Past hurts have been healed I am connected to my father the poet |

broker6, This is your best at least to me. If only every son would think and feel this way. Excellent. |

You and she are both blessed my friend. I share my poetry with my father and my mother. Though they do not write they can feel the what I mean and how I love them through my works. I sent a poem I worte to my father a couple of weeks ago. It was entitled Daddy's Girl. My mother told he that he said.."So she is a Daddy's girl hmm?" My mother replied.."How can you not know that? She has always be your special one." lol. Sometimes we take things for granted. I am very glad that you and your daughter can communicate through your poetry.

What a beautiful poem .....what a blessing to see the love and appreciation that she feels for her father....you must feel so proud and rightly so! This touched me so..... ------------------ A soul that writes from the heart and shares it, truly gives a gift extraordinaire! |
