One More Time
By Larry Chadwick

I did it for her once,
Then she wanted more.
So I did it once again,
Just like I’d done before.

She giggled with delight,
And made me oh so happy.
I swept her off the floor,
She said “Do it again Daddy!”

Smiling at this one, Larry. I can just picture you swinging her up toward the sky, maybe even tossing her into the air and always...always catching her.

Not tossing my teenager in the air, that's for sure! Paperwork. Lots of paperwork, but very little creative writing involved. And family busy ness. I may post a new one tonight, but there is already so much here to read!

I loved the pictures this poem inspired.

A girl's Dad is the first boy that she falls in love with. He provides the modes for all of her future lovers. You sound like you are one terrific model, Larry.
Adorable poem!

Larry~

I love the bond between father and daughter....this is very special...

Lauren~

Step through the
barrier of my mind,
enter my soul,
feel my desire,
let my eyes guide you
into the shadows
of my heart
