Poetry from the Generations

Copper Care
by Stacia A. Ness

Copper Love ~ Copper Care
Sitting on his dresser there.
He loved us so with all his might,
Came home late but tucked us in tight.
Catch a smile with such a glow ~
So small with more love than you'll ever know.
A walk in the afternoon
Or watch the flowering sunset 'til moon,
A movie or a late night show ~
Does he see we love him so?
He can not change but only regret
All the wasted years we've spent.
If we could go back to the day he could spare
His Copper Love and his Copper Care.

We love you, Dad
