Father and Daughter Reunion
by denny
Turned up nose on a freckled face
Bright green eyes that sparkle with joy
A smile that would melt a father's heart
And a laugh like a wind chime on a breezy day.
Hair, fire red . . trailing out behind
As she rounds second base making for third.
Cloud of dust as she hits the ground
Trying to avoid the too late tag.
Eye the pitcher .. watch for the mistake
Ball gets loose and she's half way home
Before the catcher even realizes
And scampers to retrieve the errant pitch.
Late that night .. tucked snugly into bed
There's the question .. always the question
Daddy .. did you see .. did I do it right?
Do you love me ..
Will you love me every night?
