DADDY I MISS YOU ( a poem)

[ArmyWife_MomX2]

Daddy it's your day of honor now

so we sure need you here,

I wish you weren't so far away

it's so long waiting year after year.

 

'Cause mommy and me we miss you so

but I'm brave, never fear

and when she's real sad just as you said

I wipe away her tears.

 

Every day id not real good with out you

but, we still set your place,

at the top of the dinner table

and pretend we see your face.

 

Then as the sun is setting over there

I tuck mommy in real tight,

and we say our prayers again

God keep you, while you fight.

 

We're real proud of you daddy

of your big heart and all,

when I'm big I'll serve god and country too

and in your footsteps fall.
