I have these two daughters
one a thinker
the other lives the moment
both have my heart.
I get them every other
weekend for a few
precious times
that effect me.
The thinker
knows love, hate
and the awfullness
of seperation.
The other
just knows the
feeling of a sunny day
on her cheek.
Of the two,
I worry for the thinker
for she is like me
and allows her heart to feel.
She lends it to others
that wish it no harm
but in the end
a pain must come.
To her I hold
and capture her tears
to flow with mine
and those failing years.

Here come those goosebumps again. My dad told me that very thing not long ago...

Michael,

One day when your girls are older they will know just what a great Dad you were, are, and always will be. You can't be there every moment of the day to protect them, but I think they know you would if you could.

A beautiful poem from a Dad's heart to theirs.

It is a blessing to have wings for words, and passion in pen
