Some wonderful news was waiting As I checked my mail today It was something that would bring me some tears But would also brighten up my day I was told that a poem I had entered One that was very dear to me Would be published in a book For all the world to see First it took a while for me to realise It took a while for me to see I had to read the letter more than once To realise that they were definitely talking about me Much joy did this news bring me But then from happiness I was somewhat sad There was someone who couldn't share my joy with me That someone was my Dad As I only started writing Just three short months ago And you've been gone for two years So you would never know How I wish that you could see All the poems that I've put in ink And just hope that you'd be proud of me When my name goes into print Suetang |

Oh Sue....you got me with this one. HUGS...and I guess the hurt is never going to go away. I'm so sorry, and only wish I could comfort you as you have comforted me. Have been meaning to e mail you, but I've been a little nutty lately. So I'll just tell ya now, as I think I'm gonna go to sleep. But the mass in my Dad's lung turned out to be some sort of infection which drained from the bronchial tubes, which is where the cancer is actually located. He began radiation treatment this week, as the doctors believe that it is contained and can be "shrunk" using less strenuous methods. So we are calling this good news. I think about you daily, and have read your beautiful e mail over and over. Thank you for caring...and tonight I light an extra candle for you and your father. HUGS. |
