I read your poem; the one about needing your father to love you. <br />It made me think; I always wanted my daughter to be independent <br />and so in raising her to need no one. I missed out on her needing me. <br />Had I not dismissed her needs as childish things she would one day <br />grow out of; I would not have felt so alone when I read your poem <br />the one about needing more than I gave…. <br /> <br />2008 © T Sheridan<br /><br />Ted Sheridan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-hazards-of-being-a-dad/
