My Dad
One of my favorite memories was Daddy building on the den to 2117 South Wirt St.
The smell of the fresh cut wood. And helping him (so I felt)
He'd ask me to hand him the screwdrivers.
Still. Mr. Buchanan was something else. I miss his laugh. Santa Clause only wishes he could laugh. Like that. Miss you Daddy
'Baby'

P.s. I'm still singing.
