I Remember [#2]

you
oh you
with the grin
and the big ears
and you called
me
"daddy's girl"

but you
would melt
when you saw
the form of her,
and both of you,
through glance,
reassured

I loved the
stories that you
told
to me they were
as good as
gold

and the stories
she told
of you
a gentle man
of handsome
through and
through

neither of you
entered lightly
thus
the word of
marriage
the world of
trust

but you had secrets
she did not know
and you kept
her from them, so

but when she
learned of them,
for only you
she grieved,
that your heart
so big
would heave
a memory behind
one that must
have stayed
on your mind

for you were
better than
just being
your father's child
and
whatever might
have caused
his wild

she, O she
gave her heart
to only you,
as you were
the one
you were her
sunset
and then
the sun

she could
not bear it
when you left
although a proud
veneer
she tried to heft

we all saw through
to the truth of
her
she was your
love
of that, we were
sure

and now you
both reside
where you belong
side
by side

and He sees
your delightful forms
and calls upon
all of us
to see once what
was the norm
