Daddy, Please Don't Leave Me: Poem

 
This is the perfect poem and the perfect words for a loving father-daughter relationship.  Whatever your circumstances are, life is never as long as we think it will be.  I love my dad, and hopefully this will inspire you to share your words of love with your favorite father.  We never do have enough time with our parents, and it seems the days are shortened every morning that we wake up.  Make great use of your time together; laugh with loved ones, smile, share memories, take photos, reminisce about the olden days.  Just love.  My parents are everything to my daughter that I never experienced in grandparents.  I love you both.. mom you're my favorite, and dad, you are my favorite.. dad!!  I love you.  Always.  Forever. 


Here is the Text version of this poem::

Daddy, Please Don’t Leave Me

I’ve waited years to know you

Where’s “JON”, you know, at work.

On Christmas Eve and New Year’s

My mom would sadly smirk

My dad gets home at midnight

I’d tell my friends at school

You carried me to bed

After working with your tools

We re-met in High School

Driving me to school and games

You were my biggest cheer team

Right then I knew your name

In college we connected

With heart to hearts at night

You asked me how my days were

I shared my hopes and fright

You walked me down the aisle

Who gives this girl away?

I held your arm so tightly

When you kissed my cheek that day

One night I had a baby

You and mom drove down to see

You sat there in the hospital

I remember you smiled** at me

I’m sorry for refusing

To give you giant hugs

I’d trade those days of drama

For coffee shops and mugs

So here we are together

Our special family tree

We’ll fight this thing together

Please daddy, don’t leave me.

**can be subbed with "smiling"

I love you dad, the most.. you know, for my dad! 

Your one and only daughter, Becky.

I hope I'm every bit of joy to you that you are to me.  I can't thank you enough for the life that you spent every working moment trying to give me.  I'm glad we have our time together.  

Like, Follow, and Share the charm..

Faith & Fruition,
