I wrote this yesterday about my father who passed on 3 years from 9/11. I hope this touches anyone who has lost their Daddy

Daddys Home
9-11-04

My daddys home!
The little girl would
Shout
As she raced to the
Window
Once again
To peer out

Up upon the
Third
Floor of the
Apartment
Window
She would
Stare

Down below on the
Sidewalk
Her daddy was
Standing there

And she observed
Him gather
His things
From a hard days
Work

And she could
See his strong broad
Shoulders
That
Could carry her

And everyday she
Would watch
From that
Third floor
Window

He smiling
Up
And she smiling
Down
Everyday
As he came home

And she would
Run to the top
Of the stairs
As he walked up
To the third flight

And she flung
Her arms
Around
Him
And he always
Held her tight

Such
Sweet memories
Today
Pour into
My mind
Though
You have left
This world

But daddy
I know now
You are
The one looking
Down
Upon your
Little girl
