In memory of my dad, who I love & miss dearly.

My Dad

©  Leah Hendrie
If I could write a story
It would be the greatest ever told
Of a kind and loving father
Who had a heart of gold

If could write a million pages
But still be unable to say, just how
Much I love and miss him
Every single day

I will remember all he taught me
I'm hurt but won't be sad
‘coz he'll send me down the answers
And he'll always be MY DAD
My Dad by Leah Hendrie @FamilyFriendPoems

Who ever wrote this poem is great.
I'm 14 years old and on the 10th of April this year of 2008 I lost my dad to lung cancer :(
this poem is fantastic and really made me cry.

My dad died four days ago and I have been searching a ton of poems. I like this the best. He was 59. Died of an aneurism. Here one day, gone the next. I am 31, my brother 27. He had two grandchildren, who are taking it good.

God bless you.

I lost my dad in the end of January and I still hurt a lot! This poem was beautiful, it really bought out the emotions I hold for my own father.

David Posted on Tuesday, September 16, 2008

I lost my dad 3 years ago to a massive heart attack. He was only 40. He has missed my wedding and the birth of his four grandchildren (I have 2 and my sister has 2). We all miss him terribly. The poem is beautiful, it made me cry.

I lost my dad to Leukemia almost 3 years ago. I thought this poem was just beautiful. It made me cry. I know he is gone and I thought it was the end but always have faith until the end. I loved this poem. Thank You.

I along with my two sisters and dear mother have just lost our dad. This poem touches all the nerves that are raw, but in a nice way, and couldn't describe my dad any better. I hope whoever wrote this does not mind that I will be reading this at my dads funeral. Many thanks.

Yes, I wish she would keep going. I lost my Dad 5 days ago to a heart attack, he was only 63. I am so lost with out him. It is weird because you don't think anyone in the world knows your pain. But when someone can write how you feel without ever meeting you, that helps.

I lost my father on November 9th. I am an only child and I really didn't think anyone would understand. My dad fought pancreatic cancer for almost two years. He was a miracle, my hero, and I really don't know what to do without him. I know he's watching over me, and with prayer and God's love, I'll get through it, but never forget what I wonderful father I was blessed with.

Amy Posted on Friday, November 21, 2008

Hey this poem is great and it made me cry. I lost my dad when I was 10 on November 9, 2004 because of a blood clot I'm 14 now it was sad because I wasn't there and right when I got done talking to him on the phone he died.

Chelainea Posted on Wednesday, December 17, 2008

I cried a lot when I read this beautiful poem, my father died very suddenly on Boxing day of 2008. He came to visit me and my husband and his grandchildren for Christmas. I was with him right up to the very last second, its hurts so much still as I am a big Daddy's Girl, I am still so lost without him and sometimes don't know what to do. He was a wonderful man.

Kerry Posted on Monday, February 02, 2009

My dad Passed away in 2004, since then I had a daughter, Today would of been his birthday. I look at my daughter and wish they could have known each other. I sometimes sit and cry looking at her, knowing what a wonderful person she missed out on.
When I read this, I know what the person was feeling, I just want to say Thank You for sharing

Brandi Posted on Saturday, March 14, 2009

My dad has been gone now for 11 years, but it seems like only yesterday. he was a very strong man, but cancer took him to his knee's very quick. I will never forget him. He is by my side every day of my life. this is a great poem......

marsha Posted on Tuesday, June 09, 2009

I was really touched by your poem. It was very much from the heart.

Joyce Posted on Tuesday, June 16, 2009

This is a very sentimental poem to me. I lost my dad when I was 10 and I'm 18 now. I just graduated from high school and walking across the stage without my dad there was one of the hardest things I've ever done. I just want to thank you for writing this beautiful poem and to say that I appreciate it.

Cristan Posted on Friday, June 19, 2009

I lost my dad sudden this past Christmas and I still miss him terribly. This will be the first fathers days without having him here to celebrate. Your poem is a beautiful tribute to having lost a father who meant the world to me. Thank you.

Kristin Posted on Friday, June 19, 2009

I was looking for a poem to send to my brother and sisters on this day to remember our father. He did have a heart of gold. We all miss him. Thank you for writing a beautiful poem.

Debbie Posted on Sunday, June 21, 2009

I lost my dad on the 30th of July at 10:20 am in a car accident.
I am looking for a poem to put in paper as no words are coming to my head. I feel empty and lost all in one. I am reading poems after poems and they are just lovely bring a tear to your eye.. There are no words that can ever bring one to total peace but these do ease the pain if only for a short moment.

Thanks to all that have taken their time to share how they feel I wish I could have words come together so beautifully.

Much Love to all...

Tiffany

I lost my Dad 2 weeks ago to Stage 4 bone cancer. He fought it for 2 years, and despite the pain that this causes he never once complained nor made the slightest sound because of the pain. He did not want us to worry about him. he kept his suffering all to himself and just offered to our Lord and the Virgin Mary. He accepted his ailment with an open heart. His biggest worry was caring for Mom after he was gone.

Don't worry Dad.. we made a promise and we will keep it.

Mon Veloso Posted on Monday, October 12, 2009
