Missing You
My Shannon, daughter, friend
Leaving you in Philly was difficult again
Another road-trip there was a true big thrill
Yet the drive home, I became so still
It’s funny that memories can be blessing and curse
Bring smiles and tears …
Travelling,
Not only on the road, but a look at all the years
Missing you ~ your smile, your mess
Your changing of clothes looking for the perfect dress
Your banging through the door early morn or night
Conversing when the timing was right
I miss the times you asked me out
Happy hours and floating tubes
Summertime,
Gave us Mother/Daughter romance
My Shannon, daughter, friend
You’ve blessed me rich over and over again
The road-trip, now yours, go for the thrill
Come home soon, I will be here still
It’s funny that memories can be blessing and curse
My smiles are real, as are the tears
Happiness,
Not only for the road, but for all of your years

P.S. On this 27th day, please stay safe and out of Hurricane Irene's way!
I love you and I do miss you!
