I saw you in the mist today
Gently rising from the road
My heart had so much to say
Though I knew that you were gone
My shadow sat beside me
So, I wouldn’t be alone
We chatted about memories
Scrolling pictures on my phone
Today it is your birthday
The first one since you left
melancholy found a way
to have its thoughts expressed
The sun climbed high into the sky
as if to say "good morning boo"
A soft and gentle butterfly
fluttered in the morning dew
So many things can take me back
to the memories we made
Each one so special, in fact
I'd never trade a single day
So, I'll wish you happy birthday
I hope that you enjoy the view
I wanted to take this time to say
I miss you dad, I love you
