How I miss you Papa
I could never describe

I miss the way you would sit and smoke your cigar
Then tell me never to smoke
I miss your contagious chuckle
I miss seeing you in your chair
With books all around you
And you’re Pepsi beside you

I miss your sense of humor and your jokes
I remember how you taught me
To make a paper airplane
How to make a fist
And how you always read science fiction books

But you know what I remember
And miss most of all?
How you never yelled
How you loved everyone
And how you loved me
And still do
Because you were my one and only
Papa Morrison
