48 years ago my beloved Daddy left us this Monday
Mom is with you now and that makes it harder but easier for you
The pain returns every August
Flashbacks of how you were taken so very young when we were very young
You would be proud of all of us
The scars of yesterday did not stop us
We still fulfill dreams
All the joys and triumphs of our lives felt you were there
Your girls and their husbands
Your grandchildren
Your great grandchildren so little and we will share stories about you
The tears are here and visiting the cemetery doesn't help
You are not there, you are in my heart
The Monarch butterfly flew by me awhile ago so I know you are here and with me
I miss you still, Daddy
