He would hate this. ....I cry out... Erase this--he would silence shout. My father had more dignity-- more than he bequeathed to me. I wish I had one wisdom sage in tranquility of age I wish that I could write his voice in gravel, Texas stones of moist. I wish that I could let you know how his garden green did grow and all his silences within gave birth to all the tales I spin. I write in ink of tear tonight I miss him so, I miss his Might--- I wish he would appear to me- and tell me that death set him free. |

Seems a rock of sages. Wise enough to know that lessons can be taught without sound. Great tribute. "Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to decieve" |

I had a hunch, and I had a hope, that when I opened this, I would find your father speaking through you... give it a little more time, and his sage will become your wisdom... warm hugs... |

I KNOW that sets him free... let your poetry do the same for you baby.. this is a beautiful bittersweet tribute K love ya me twin me I know no one is to blame |

For the rest of my life, there will not be a day that passes without me missing my dad--if yours is still here with you, go love on him--NOW. Not trying to be sad, but don't let an opportunity to love your loves go by.... Thank you all...now go love on somebody. |
