Daddies little angel

My old friend

I just found out

The pain that you’ve been through

You always were

A good person

You always did what’s right

Not for praise or profit

But because you walked towards the light

There were those in school that put you down

But you stood right and true

No ulterior motives

That’s just who you were

You stood your ground

No matter what

And always did what’s right

Giving of yourself

It was your dream to become a fireman

Always thinking of others

Your loss stopped me in my tracks

Your pictures brought me tears

Her little face

Angelic eyes

I still cannot believe

But rest assured

That this is true

Daddies little angel

Is up there

smiling down at you.

For my old friend D.P.

I’m sorry for your loss
