BIRTHDAY TRIBUTE William A. Donnel, August 10, 1911 to February 22, 2004

To "My Daddy"

On his Birthday

Sometimes in my loneliness

I see your face,

and picture you here

with a warm embrace.

Your soft strong arms

that held me close,

is the thing that

is treasured most.

The time and space

that keeps us apart

won't keep us from knowing

what's in each other's heart.

So by our own spirit

our lives are defined

and we are by love

forever intertwined.
