For me, fathers day is more difficult than my dads anniversary, so i wanted to share this poem with you,
For those lucky enough to still have their dads in their lives, make the very most of them, and for those like me, who miss them dreadfully, i send you gentle hugs


Dad...so many images come to mind
whenever I speak your name;
It seems without you in my life
things have never been the same.

What happened to those lazy days
when I was just a child;
When my life was consumed in you
in your love, and in your smile.

What happened to all those times
when I always looked to you;
No matter what happened in my life
you could make my gray skies blue.

Dad, some days I hear your voice
and turn to see your face;
Yet in my turning...it seems
the sound has been erased.

Dad, who will I turn to for answers
when life does not make sense;
Who will be there to hold me close
when the pieces just don't fit.

Oh, Dad, if I could turn back time
and once more hear your voice;
I'd tell you that out of all the dads
you would still be my choice.

Please always know I love you
and no one can take your place;
Years may come and go
but your memory will never be erased.

Today, Jesus, as You are listening
in your home above;
Would you go and find my dad
and give him all my love.



I love you dad, your never more than a thought away

Thats a lovely poem Lynn.....but there is only one bit I can relate to ..

Dad, some days I hear your voice
and turn to see your face;
Yet in my turning...it seems
the sound has been erased

I think its because I was very young when he died so growing up without a dad was just the norm for me..

(hope that doesnt offend )

Lovely words Lyn,Hayley too
Hope you ok :)

course not Hayley xxx

Lynn the poem is lovely sending hugs to those who never really knew their fathers,and those who have lost them,for those who still have their fathers, love them, tell them you do. always show your affection,
the rewards will be magical.

p.m sent Lynn, love you, Jean xxx

I remember him Lynn can tell you every thing about him...I can still hear his voice telling me to be quite..lol

He would be 86 years old this year but was a very modern man for his time...He did the washing with a twintub ..but didnt have a spinner a mangle...and he cooked...lovely meals and also cleaned,..bathed us...and even ironed..

Thankyou Lynn,

I adore my Dad and try to blot out when he wont be here....


Love to you and all who hurt,

lynn I fully understand. It's three years since my Dad died, and tomorrow would have been his birthday too. Double whammy here.

Happy Father's Day Daddy, I miss you as much as I love you......... MILLIONS!!

And (((hugs))) for all those without their Daddy's for whatever reason!

Beautiful poem, Lynn.

Tomorrow will be the first Father's Day without Dad for me.

I still wake up forgetting he isn't here any more then it all comes flooding back.

Sleep tight, Dad.

This is my 4th year without dad, in a childhood of horror, he was my only warmth and light at times, and i think my only friend

To me he will always be my guiding light

xxLynnxx

Thinking of you especially Gwynne

a gentle cuddle for my lovely friend

Lynn xxxxxxxxxxxxx

(((hugs))) Gwynne

It will be four years in October since my Dad passed away suddenly...........I am forever thankful that the last words I said to him were " Love you Dad ".

me too Amanda, me too

xxLynnxx

Like TW it's a double whammy for me as today would have been his birthday. It will be 2years in less than a month that he passed on and I still forget sometimes that he isn't here.
Love the poem
