Poem for my dad.

March11

This is a poem for the man that had been in my life since I can remember. He is my fathet and my dad.

I met you when I was two
I didn’t really know you
I had never had a father in my life
and now all of a sudden I did
I don’t remember a lot from my child hood
and I don’t have many memories of me and you
But as a child I knew you were always there
But when you and mum got divorced that’s when I go to know you
That’s when you took the time to spend time with me
talk to me about your life
and told me stories of your childhood
Listen to me if I was down
There for me if I needed you
supported me through tough decision
and was always there to make me laugh
you are the one I want at my graduation
you are the one I want to be there when your grandson is born.
You are the one I want to give me away at my wedding
and you are the one I want to know and love for the rest of my life
because you are my father
Just because we are not related by blood doesn’t mean your not.
You chose me as your daughter which makes are bond extra special
I know you will always be there because you are my dad.

    Beautiful poem! This I can see being used as the narrative; a v/o by you with images projected and a song in the background. Would be great!
