‼️PULL MY FINGER‼️

You met me

I can’t recall

This memory

I know somehow

For I feel it

And when we met

I knew your spirit

The first man

I ever loved

You’re still here

This I think of..

When in my walker

Down stairs I fell

You ran to me

And saved me well

The many times

I slept walked

You steered me back

And bought a deadlock

I was two

I remember

Running away

Was my adventure

Your permission

It was granted

And I could take

If I had earned it

Unemployed

I did not own

Left all my clothes

At my home

Off I went

I was naked

Turned around

I couldn’t make it

Thus I planned

My great escape

Asked dear Santa

If he was fake

All I questioned

Bothered me

I wanted answers

I would plea

You held my hand

As we walked

I listened too

As you talked

Every word

I believed you

To a child

This is value

What you need

You just learn it

Because of you

I was determined

When I fell

You fell too

You didn’t say

But this I knew

When I asked

You a question

Sometimes there was

A secret lesson

So many times

I was afraid

But you pushed me

To be so brave

Your sense of humour

Was immense

And this I like

When life’s intense

So many times

“Pull my finger”

Waiting for

The sound of thunder

I did not know

When I was young

That once you were

Your daddy’s son

You never knew

You’re own dad

When you a babe

He died a lad

I can’t imagine

You not there

And I feel pain

I know you care

I hear the sound

Of your keys

You use to shake them

When you could see

You cannot read

The words I write

I like to think

One day you might

I could read

If you would listen

Because of you

I learned this lesson

When you walk

On thin ice

Before you step

Do think twice

I am in tune

With your story

The more I learn

It does amaze me

So on this day

Of father’s bliss

I love you dad

Big hug and kiss
