This poem actually made me cry as I was writing it. The inspiration for it came from a variety of places;

  • A show on TV where one of the main characters had died and his son was asked if he was OK and he replied " I'm me Dad's lad" as he pulled his shoulders back and wiped away a tear.

  • A story in a woman's magazine about a mother who said goodbye at her daughter's deathbed.

  • A book I read on Near Death Experiences.

  • My love for my children and their love for me.

  • Losing my father at an early age.


My wife thought this poem was depressing, I prefer to think of it as sad, see what you think.


A Dad's Lad
 
You were so beautiful,
With your boyish good look charms,
And I couldn't believe you were dying,
As I cradled you in my arms.
 
You see, you were ya Dad's Lad,
And could never have been denied,
And we were going to ride into my sunset,
Lifelong partners, side by side.
 
But things in life don't,
Always work out quite to plan,
And some cancers won't be beat,
even with the medicine man.
 
There can't be a love that is stronger,
Than the one I feel for you,
And I would have done just anything,
To stop the pain that you were going through.
 
And as it got near the end,
Your fight started to wane,
And you sweated profusely,
I guess I thought it was the pain.
 
But the nurse put her arm around me,
And said with her heart open wide,
"He wants you to let him know,
It's Okay to go for the ride".
 
Now that was the hardest speech,
And the words got stuck in my head,
But they slowly and painfully came out,
As quietly I said;
 
"You've made me so happy,
And it's felt good to be alive,
But it's time for you to leave this earth,
Just let me know when you arrive".
 
Now today is your birthday,
It's three long years since you've gone,
And how come the pain of missing you,
Is alive and still going strong ?
 
I've never felt so alone,
Now I've lost you and the wife,
I considered not going on,
I considered taking my life.
 
But as I stared at your photo,
It fell straight to the ground,
And then I knew you'd never left,
you were still hanging around.
 
You see, you were ya Dad's Lad,
And could never have been denied,
And we are going to ride into my sunset,
Lifelong partners, side by side.
