"Tell me that you love me dad...say it in my sleep, please, let me hear you say it once dad, it will be a treasure that I will keep. I'd still love to hear those words dad, even though you've been long gone...'come, and give me a hug lad,' come here my precious son.' Tell me quietly in a dream dad, it's something I've never heard, I want to 'feel' you in my ear dad....I need to know that once you really cared. Please tell me that you loved me dad, in a dream, you'll have to come, just say that you loved us both dad...then I'll whisper it to my mum."

Even as a 30-year-old man, I would like to hear my dad say it to me now... Makes me smile. but with an air of sadness. Good poem. I liked it very much.

Thank you all for your encouraging comments....really appreciated....I never ever met my biological father.....he left when I was very young, and died in 1985....on the other side of the world.......(as far away from me as he could get)....
