Though you are gone
I still see your smile
A happy home
In my baby’s eyes
A sort of hand me down
Hereditary
Much like your own
A link in your family
And when she smiles
We smile too
Reeling the time
Memories of you
But so much more
Of you remains
This house and home
All bears your name
Not one day
Escapes your touch
In so many ways
You meant so much
Taught me to love
To laugh and cry
Even so much
How to say goodbye
You’re in my heart
And under my skin
An angel on guard
And I am your kid
