My Dear Dad

My friend, Lauren, wrote this in memory of her dad

A tear drop from my cheek
I love you, I miss you, you were so unique
Seeing you there in your coffin
Reminded me of a sweet, graceful dolphins

There you are in your dark fancy suit
With cigarettes in your pocket to distribute
Your hair is all neat and glasses fixed rite
I wish i could hold u, squeeze you tight

But you are so cold i dare not shudder
your gentle hand is as smooth as butter
if everything in the world i would trade
to spend one more night with my hero on a crusade

For all the tea in China and all the rice, too
All for a little more time to spend with you
But as it is God's will for you to go at night
I'll feel better knowing you are all right

No more coughin, sneezing, rushing to the hospital at 4
I will truly miss you, you will suffer no more
Although my heart aches with pain to not see you again
Forever I'll love you, to the very end
