Your loving lips kiss my fair skinned
        cheek hinting of Old Spice Cologne
and gentle fatherly affection, as my proud heart
        plumps up with thankfulness. My father,
so brilliant, a brain like Einstein, and yet so
        modest, never speaking down to anyone.
There are no less important souls in your mind, just
        people, God’s supreme creation all one.
Your broad smile with reassuring words warms my cool
   blood, body and soul, rejuvenating my desire for your
immeasurable wisdom in understanding life’s
        purpose. In your laugh I find lively
substance, the devouring of a satisfying dinner
        stuffing my empty belly, you fill my
yearning to comprehend infinite trust and humanity.
         My Dad, I swim in your liquid eyes of
green, and calming light reflects bright to my
         deepest core, oh how your rays shine through
me. Let us waltz dear one, your moves so Fred Astaire
         like, I promise my feet will glide under you,
not over, while we get  “in the mood” for the Big Band
         sound of Glen Miller.Your peppy steps keep me
spirited as envious onlookers gaze upon us. An interlude
         progresses into song, your baritone voice sturdy
and satiny rich mingles with my harmonies to your
         favorite melody, “My Way.” Simply wonderful, we
resound Sinatra into the sparkled ebony twilight...
         In clouds of wishing I am dancing with you, and  
shall once more in Heaven’s perpetuity.
