A Poem to Daddy ( from "Love Letters to Daddy" by Donna Nieri )

I traveled the desert looking
for your name,

I sought through the drought,
but always found the same,

I chased shadows looking for a
picture of you,

I tried my best,
Now I will lay it to rest.

I will play in sand castles
in the sky,

And not question the reason
why,

Now I have come to a mountain
where I can fly,

To a spring where waters flow,
never failing,

Reflecting a Father, and there
will be no more goodbyes.
