THE POEM I'LL NEVER WRITE

My dear father this is your day.....
I stand at your grave site to repay,
Your love, kindness, and generosity
I'll never forget your love Daddy.

The many times you consoled me,
Held me in your arms tightly.
"Don't worry Con, all's all right."
Assured and kissed me goodnight.

A girl's friend, her proud Dad....
Cheering her on when sad,
Enjoying her moment when glad.
Understanding, kind, rarely mad.

If given the choice for a father.
'Twd have been you I wanted
I can't image ever loving another
My whole life I felt so blessed!

Truthful this part would be.....
Just want you to know I forgive....

For every beating,
for every injury,
for every hurt
you inflicted
upon me.

The only father I ever knew
Not once did I stop loving you
The only Dad I ever had,
good or bad,
I loved you!

"A child that is abused, never blames the parent.
We are convinced that it is our fault, therefore
we never even think about telling anyone.
Your whole life you know without any doubt
that you are bad, very bad, and that if you had
been good, they wouldn't have had to beat you.
But not once do you ever stop loving them,
because of their twisted viewpoint, they tell
you that they love you and care for you
by beating you and making you a better
child. Thus the conflict of taking a child
away from an abusive parent, they
always want to go back no matter what
because they think they are truly being loved.
I was 50 years old when it finally
dawned on me, that even "Killers"
are not beaten!!!"

"Surviving Smiles"

Connie, I am so sorry you had to go through this. I wish all children had wonderful caring fathers who loved and protected them My Daddy was a saint. He is still my hero to this day as well as my GrandDaddys. I was so blessed. You can pretend mine were yours too.

Much love,
Rita

Your poem was a touching tribute to your dad. I always wanted to write a poem that said " Thanks for being the Ward Cleaver of my life, or the Mike Brady" but truth is, those dads never really exist. Well some kids may be blessed to have that kind of dad, I just wasn't one of those kids. Although, my dad never once laid a hand on any of his six kids, (left discipline to mom) he was just no Norman Rockwell believer. I loved this poem becaue it acknowledged the imperfection yet savored the love of your dad no matter what! Wonderful poem, ms. concue! Wonderful!
Angel always....joni!
p.s. Hope you get to read my father's day poem! Lighthouse of My Life! ((((mom consue))))

Such a lot of feeling. I can emote with this poem. I only ever embraced my dad once and that was when I was about six years old.
Later it was just a handshake I regret this bitterly. The tears are not far away so I will say keep smiling love bern.

ConSue, I am sorry you had to go through this...
I can't say I can understand how you feel, because I don't, but I am glad you are at peace now.

This is a very sad poem, and the other side to fathers day many are not brave enough to speak of.

Great write hun.
*hugs*

Oh ConSue! - this is a very sad poem written by a daughter who has a great loving heart (i herited from someone? (Dad perhaps).

I was exceptionally blessed, an incomparable Father, truly incomparable. Many are not so blessed, that a dad nearly adores them, and no end of affection and tenderness, but Divine Providence always finds a means to make up for anything that is wanting.
He has given life to a wonderful daughter, something to be thankful ful.
On human wants and inefficiencies we cannot judge, not knowing what parents in turn have experienced in their childhood.

But one thing we can surely do is to pray that the loving Father of Fathers make sad and ill-treated children aware that they are infinitely loved.
May they all be blessed this Fathers Day and forever.
Thanks for the beautiful poem.
Warm love!
Elizabeth

My heart goes out to u mom and i too am sorry you went thru this too.

yobrat,
emy
