Here I am...on Father's Day, <br />My children, miles and miles away; <br />Not a card, not a call, I can only hope, <br />They're thinking of me, (I'm such a dope) . <br /> <br />The divorce was more than separation, <br />It's like we're in a different nation; <br />They have their world and I have mine, <br />Far from me, their city lights, do shine. <br /> <br />It's difficult be their dad, <br />I can't see them when I want, <br />and that's so sad; <br />if I think too long about it, <br />it drives me mad. <br /> <br />So Happy fathers Day to everyone, <br />The lucky ones that see their sons, <br />Those that see their daughters, fair, <br />You've no lost memories to share. <br /> <br />Happy Father's Day I say to you, <br />You did the things I didn't do. <br />Your kids are home and happy too, <br />Congratulations, everyone of you!<br /><br />david lessard<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/father-s-day-17/
