I've been back to read this 3 times. Must be getting soft in my old age. I wish I'd written something when my Dad died, I wish I'd written this. Thanks.

My dad died on Epiphany 1973 - four days after I turned 20, three years after he was diagnosed with cancer
I can relate to this poem - and very much so. It expresses feelings I have had and still have very well
Thank you!
