Poem for my Dad

Saddest Christmas

You couldn’t live forever,

Although I wanted you to.

The moment you left was divided,

Between a breath and a silence and then I knew.

 

Your face, your voice, your smell, your touch,

So long have they been gone from this world.

Yet the moment that I am reminded,

You are brought back to me in a whirl.
