Your gift, your legacy

You've given me more than memories

You've given me laughter
even in the face of losing you

You've given me songs
lovely lyrics and melodies to hold on to

You've given me love
your own and that of the hundreds
who loved you and now
care for me

You've given me a way forward
my own way
because you always supported that

Thank you Dad
for bearing your pain
for staying on
till you were sure I had gathered all your gifts

You've given me more than memories
