One Day, Not Someday (Acrostic)

One day you'll sit and smile
No wondering why or how
Everything will be all right

Dad will still be with you day and night
A warmth you feel upon your face
Your dad has just given you a kiss

Not today I know you'll say
Or even tomorrow will your pain go away
To a place that isn't hurting so, but

Someday soon you're pain will ease
Once you know that you will see
Memories of tender touches
Even kisses, smiles and the such
Do seem distant and hard to see
Always he is near to thee
Your pain will heal this I know

  One Day, Not Someday  your grief will go.

Cool how you used letters to set the pace of your poem, and well said.

[Raven Starhawk]

True words written by a true poetic genius. It has a uplifting and hopeful message that sheds light on anyone's darkness.

This is beautiful...and I'm impressed with the format because I find it very difficult to do. Such touching words.
