Far Far Away Verses

Dear Daddy, when are you coming home
How many sleeps will it be;
I know it's an important job
But it's you I want to see.

Mom's no good at baseball
Even worse at soccers skills;
Grandad said I could write to you
As part of my day to fill.

Not bad as I'm only three
I'm sure you're quite impressed;
I love you daddy you know that too
Got to go now and get dressed!

Far far away reminds me of a book
I used to read when I was a child;
Magical places a long way away
As I read the chapters through I'd smile.

We are now this distance apart
You serving your country there;
I wish I was by your side
Sometimes more than I can bear.

I love you, miss you and think of you
many times day and night;
Waiting for your time at home
When you can hold me tight.
Maggie-May

It doesn't matter where we go
We still do postcards every year;
It's 24 now this time round
I've always held you dear.

I wonder how many miles we've clocked
Since that time we met in Salou;
It must reach around the world
That's what I reckon-what about you?

****

I'm standing on the edge of the sea
You're on the other side;
It's hard to imagine just how far that is
Walking! I'd take it in my stride?

There's trouble all around the world
Sometimes money sometimes not;
Financing the high life all around
But for me-you're all I've got.

Each and everyday and night
Especially Christmas and you're still away;
Hoping that you miss me too
Each night and every day.

You're leaving to go far away
It's not too late to stop;
Cancel your notice and stay here
It's really, really not.

Your new job is thousands of miles
And I know it's a plane ride away;
But I'm missing you already
This your last day!

I will send you letters
Back to snail mail I know;
But sometimes there's more to say
And now you've got to go!

****

May our friendship never come apart
Especially when it straight from the heart;
May you always have a rainbow of smiles on your face
And in your heart forever and ever.

****

Travelling around the world
It's always been your dream;
I knew for sure you'd find a place
And tell me that you'd seen.

The place that's close to heaven
Of which you've always dreamt;
It's your birthday on this very day
Your present I've already sent.

So Good Luck with your purchase
I know you'll be very happy there;
A new house down on the beach
A new man- a very happy pair!

****

I look up at the moon at night
And I know you see it to;
I'll send my love via it tonight
Bringing it to you.

I miss you so and I know
That you miss me too;
Not long now and this trip done
In the flesh I will be seeing you!

Safe and home and in my arms
Is where you're gonna be;
That's all I worry about day and night
Just come home to me. 

****
