Farewell, Dear Father of our hearts June 29, 2016

Farewell, Dear Daddy! Since the day you passed
There is a space feels empty which was full,
A space which love called home and nestled there,
A place of refuge serving each as balm,
Created by your portion in our birth,
Against the blows which fate unkindly brings
With trials that fortune sends without  remorse.
No matter where our winding paths may trend
You will be there, companion to the end,
Your voice shall sound forever in fond hearts
Which owe their presence here, in part, to you.
