Perfect opening lines, Melissa! Incredible poem! Your work is amazing. This poem is me in ways that I won't allow myself to say. Awesome job once again

I almost cried...this really hit home for me. my dad has been gone since I was 16 as well.
Very sad poem but very well written.
I find it really hard to write about subjects like this as it always tun=rns out to be thoughts and feelings on paper and I can never format it well enough to present.

Very nice, Melissa! I love the ending, just beautifully written.
Oh and the whole Ms Cleo hanging up on you cracked me up...great stuff.
Take care and keep it up~Holly

Wow again! For once I'm lost for words .... it so doesn't happen very often lol .... I like to believe I'm a keeper of dreams too
