Your Words

 

Your words rise in my memories

Some were sweet and some sour
I think of our time together
Almost every waking hour

 

And when the children come and say
Daddy, please can we do this today?
I try to hear what response you may

Have given to them in your day

So though we can't exchange our views

You still are influencing what I choose
To do and say to those three young minds

And so your love for them still shines
