Farewell My Father--A Farewell Poem to my Dad




Earlier tonight I found out that my father has just passed away. He was born on March 7, 1927. He was a wonderful man with a very kind heart. He was 88 years old. Cause of death was acute renal failure. My wife, my sister and I were recently at his bedside, my Father looked at all of us there and said: "I LOVE YOU."

OM MANI PADME HUM


Farewall My Father
by Tim Kavi

Farewell my father!
You taught me well with your kind heart
you led me to remember compassion
you brought me your smile
as a baby, I was born too early
but you held me as soon and as long as you could,

then just a short time ago
I held you with my smile
joined hands with my sister and my wife
all holding hands with you
we prayed together
while the light was still in your eyes

and yet, now I see a bright light
and know that You are still with us
guiding us
teaching us as a father always must
his Young

I love you my Father

and will miss you
but today I celebrate You and all You have done

I am proud to be YOUR son
Farewell my father  ~~TK
