it's fathers day

at the cemetery.

this year i'm paying my respects

in silence.



silently swimming

in a sea of memories

some good, some bad,

some happy, some sad.



i remember ...



dad driving me on my paper route

at 5 am when my bike had a flat.

dad sharing his cigarette with me

in the visiting hall at juvenile hall.

dad letting me stay with him

when I had nowhere else to go.

dad never getting to see me be good,

and now I am.



i'll never forget ...



our last goodbye

on the telephone

in the chaplains office in prison.

at least I was strait for our last talk.



did you hear me in the silence today dad ?



did you feel the kiss that I blew to you ...



as I walked from your grave ?
