DAD

DAD

i watch you laying there

you look so small and pale

not like before

you have always been so strong

so invincible

your blue eyes used to twinkle

twinkle with laughter

will i see that again?

your hair was so dark

when did it become almost white?

you have always been there

a strong presence in my life

what i thought everyone should be...

i watch you walking

its a little slower

more cautious

where did the crinkles come from

you have lived a long time

seen so much 

you have many stories to tell

tell them to me

tell them to you grandkids

Dad come share your stories
