Dear Daddy
There is so much more I could tell them about you and the loves in my life.But in writing I found what I was looking for all along. You see Im becoming more than 'the piano players daughter'.
I have stepped away from your shadow.Moved away from behind your limelight.
So many are the gifts you left me here in my heart. Like a treasure waiting to be unlocked. I open them one by one.In my genuine heart of sadness I weep for you. In my music and my songs I lament for you.I play alongside you now like I always wanted to do.Because you left the music in me.
I love you

I like poetry and I think I'm really going to like you blog. First poem knocked me for a loop. Beautiful writing; it makes sense that you are a musician.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fascinating subject for me to read from a totally different perspective.
ReplyDeleteI have no daughter, only a pet cat called Oscar (see, there's a bit of piano even in that name)- but the piano certainly does inspire devotion.
An interesting read, thank you - I shall return here again to absorb more thoroughly.
