Father
I wish I could sit with you….somewhere in heaven
On wicker chairs, brown and silent
And stare at a serene sunrise quietly….
I wish I could put my finger tips on your arm
My head on your heart and breath in a new morning with you
Somewhere else…away from this world
I wish I could pause forever
Not think, not dream
Just feel your presence
Smile and rest eternally, like you…
And all this time we would be looking at the sunrise
Without a word
For I would look at you
And you would look back
And we would know
Without much said
That I had finally come home…
In memory of my beloved father.
