Tears and Joy

12/15/2018

September 11, 2014: I received this poem from my son David; it came after a long talk with his daughter, Mary. Mary and Robert are in love and this is something that David and I see the hand of the Lord in. It appears that her days at home will soon end. The Eagle must leave its nest.

Joy with Tears

I didn't mean to cry
When you sailed away
But a Symphony of joy with tears
Got mingled along the way

Mingled among the worn out shoes
And discarded little bows
Buried beneath the painted ponies
And the dancing ballerina toes

I didn't mean to cry
But my feet are made of clay
And my father's heart, it must break
So that you can find your way

If I held my breath
Could I roll back the time
And take us to those bygone years
When you held your hand in mine

I don't mean to cry
When you sail away
But the joy of seeing you be you
Brought tears along the way

I love you!

And I always will!

Daddy
