Even with all those years that we were apart
You was that sensible, beating rhythm in my heart
And with those bright stars high up in the sky
They can still remind me of those days of you and I
For Bill, you wasn't just my Father, you was also my Best Friend
This love in my heart for you will never end
I will always have those memories of us two in the park
Acting like silly children, doing crazy things just for the lark
Sitting upon those too small for us swings
We'd drive each other stupid with our attempts to sing
Those silly little crazy nursery rhymes
Which took us back to my happy childhood times

Hi Shaz,
Since you were kind to visit me, I wanted to return the favor. This poem worked fine for my reading. Since you are still in the process of perfecting, I'll see it again but I've enjoyed what you've written thus far.
Happy writing!
