a date with my dad
my dad loved women, fast cars
the finer things in life
though some would call him a good ole boy
being a crop dusting pilot
he loved me
my parents divorced when I was just a baby
I recall awaiting him at the window on visiting day
so happy to see him
I found out today he was a writer
see I hear the dead
more than any my dad
he looks over my shoulder when i'm typing
tells me he's proud
never knew he wrote
I miss him though we didn't see things the same
he's shown me a vision of me at three pig tails and all
running into his arms while on bent knee
says that'll be us
on the day I pass
from this life to the next
we have a date and he'll be there

Brenda ... Brenda ... Brenda ... now THIS is awesome! ... especially the ending ... I actually teared up because this is not a lucky future I foresee with my father ... we had issues and disturbances but will we have a date in the hereafter: Perhaps ... But in the mean time, I will envy yours ... thank you, my Queen, for the tear dropped ... love to you, Devlin.

My dad was an editor, and one false word brought his fury. Despite a bit of a temper he was a fine man, and I look forward to meeting him where he might be, offer him some poetry. Your dad sounds as if he was fascinating. Any man who can live fast, dust crops and later write has my admiration. So do you, Crim. Excellent work!

Re. a date with my dad
I now have a much better understanding of why you felt my father writes so keenly. I hope you don't mind, but I'm claiming this one for my list and loving it for life. Beautiful, Brenda, just heart warming and lovely. :)
