FATHER'S DAY

Small hands shaking me, waking me up. Big bright eyes and laughter. Kisses and hugs. Proud of handmade card. Open my amazing gift, thankfully a gadget, not a tie. Breakfast feast.

Father/Daughter date. Sunday Matinee Movie. Her choice. Her on my lap. Sharing popcorn and M&Ms.

Enjoying the moments. Best Father's Day ever.

There is no one left to walk with now
No small, warm hand within my own
And woods are less enchanting
When explored alone.
