"Birthday"

I want to send a message

To someone I love.

I wanna say happy birthday

To my daddy up above.

Although you're not here to celebrate today,

I'll have a cold one for you anyway.

I could sit here and cry.

Ask God why? Or try to deny.

But instead, I sigh...

As I look at the sky..

Wondering what it's like to fly.

BIO:

Felicia Weaver has been a lover of poetry from a very young age.  She was first inspired to write by her mother, whom also wrote a little poetry now and then. She was amazed at how much feeling and emotion can go into both writing and reading poetry, and she wanted to make the same impact. To make someone feel something when they read her poems. She hopes to touch and inspire people like she was when she was younger.
