Twenty one years have passed
Since you went to Death.
Twenty one years without
The daddy I adored.
Twenty one years have turned
Your child into a mother.
Twenty one years have faded
Your flesh into shadowed memories.
Twenty one years I've known
This absence is forever.
Twenty one years, twenty one years
I've cried.

Good work. Makes me very thoughtful.

Thank you. I don't write much poetry, tend to stick to prose but some things are better expressed as a poem.
