I still stretch like a cat in the morning Holding the breath of my last dream inhaling the thoughts of my next one You never meet me there. I stumble to the kicthen Wash my hands & fry my eggs sunnyside up You never meet me there. I place my favortie coffee mug upon the counter Fill it with rich, smooth, bold, black coffee let the creamer sweeten it as I open the blinds You never meet me there. Your absence is a noisy silence When my heart yearns for you It beats like an Orchestra I don't know where you've gone I do know my Mothers patience Beyond a virtue Is more like Celeste Either she believes she'll see you again Or you've never left I cry sometimes More often then I should it doesn't get any easier You never meet me there. I reminisce sometimes Not as often as I should there's a peace in my past I cannot leave you there. You are my Father You did your job Above average is your middle name Greatly was your first & the last you left behind for us, Love Greatly Above Average Love You set a standard You are my latest Greatest Inspiration A million Thank You's I never gave A billion hugs I can no longer give When I make it to the deepest corners of my heart I am confident You will meet me there! <3

You Never Meet Me There...
I still stretch like a cat in the morning Holding the breath of my last dream inhaling the thoughts of my next one You never meet me there. I stumble to the kicthen Wash my hands & fry my eggs sunnyside up You never meet me there. I place my favortie coffee mug upon the counter Fill it with rich, smooth, bold, black coffee let the creamer sweeten it as I open the blinds You never meet me there. Your absence is a noisy silence When my heart yearns for you It beats like an Orchestra I don't know where you've gone I do know my Mothers patience Beyond a virtue Is more like Celeste Either she believes she'll see you again Or you've never left I cry sometimes More often then I should it doesn't get any easier You never meet me there. I reminisce sometimes Not as often as I should there's a peace in my past I cannot leave you there. You are my Father You did your job Above average is your middle name Greatly was your first & the last you left behind for us, Love Greatly Above Average Love You set a standard You are my latest Greatest Inspiration A million Thank You's I never gave A billion hugs I can no longer give When I make it to the deepest corners of my heart I am confident You will meet me there! <3
