Happy Birthday Daddy. Youve been on my mind a lot lately. Tomorrow you would have been 60 years old. I sometimes try to imagine what you would have been like as an old man, But I find it hard to picture. You were just 38 when you were taken from us. And I still miss you. I guess that will never change, But I dont suppose I would really want it to. Love you dad. Always have, always will.. Daddys girl I remember sitting at the table Waiting for your car knowing you would honk that horn to let me know how far I got soo excited each time you would draw near For I knew I would be cuddled loved and held so dear I remember your whiskery kisses and your arms around me tight I remember the songs that we would sing Together through the night You were like an angel keeping me safe and warm I knew no harm would come while I was in your arms I could sit on your lap for hours Not caring what was on just being with you mattered but now thats all gone I remember well the day I had to say goodbye Standing at that hotel I watched my father cry You were always such a bear Standing so strong and proud Emotions were a weakness not to be allowed At least thats the face you showed To everyone but me For I saw my fathers love as clear as it could be But on that day you cracked Maybe just a little But enough that I saw the tears begin to trickle I cried so hard cause I was loosing My daddy by my side I cried so long it felt that a part of me had died I couldnt have known it was the last time I would see you in the flesh For less than 2 years later You were laid to rest I remember calling you often just to hear you say That you still loved me dearly no matter how far i was away But then you took a journey Further than I could go You left us all behind My turn for tears to flow For who is daddys little girl When daddy is no more When all the I love yous fade and the wings of Angles soar No more hugs and kisses No more singing me to sleep No more waiting at that table For daddys horn to beep No more love and laughter no longer safe and warm For daddys gone where I cannot follow and cannot shelter me from the storm But to this day I love you That will never change For in this woman I am now Daddys girl remains. ~Andrea Roberson~ 06-29-2013
