Daddy and daughter ~ His babydoll,
From infancy to little girl,
She was his entire world,
As she grew ~ So did dad,
Their love weaved into a plaid,
Pre-teen years and little girl tears,
Met with a father's fears,
Fears that only fathers know,
Fears that they never show,
Teen years come and boys are met,
A dad can sense his biggest threat,
A young lady soon evolves,
And daddy has lost his babydoll,
She has grown and so has he,
Their plaid of love still being weaved.

~~~

Years do pass and life is lived,
Each day of life became a gift,
Dad grew older and needed more,
From the little girl that he adored,
Hand in hand ~ Strong holds frail,
Daughter and daddy ~ In “Goodbye Hell”.

~~~

The tartan weave is all that’s left,
Memories of love ~ A Daddy’s Gift. [comments] => 6 [counter] => 240 [topic] => 52 [informant] => tifrob [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => goodbyepoetry )

This is wonderful... and so very touching. And this...

Hand in hand ~ Strong holds frail,
Daughter and daddy ~ In “Goodbye Hell”.

... left me without words enough. Hold on to those memories - a memory of love is a treasure. As is this.
