Every night I wonder,
I hear the thunder rumble.
so loud and furious.
what is taking so long,
why isn't he home?
he is always gone when it storms,
never home to hold me and tell me its ok.
I hate it when he's gone, but I love it when he's home.
I'm put to bed by my beautiful mother,
when I ask her where he is she just says,
“he will be home soon, don't worry.”
I'm fast asleep and I hear the truck s engine,
he is finally home
no more worrying
I no he is safe now!!!
nothing to be afraid of
for my lineman daddy is home
I run and give him a huge hug
just so I no that he is there,
I shut the back door
my daddy is here to stay!!!NO STORM WILL EVER TAKE MY DADDY AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love you daddy
love forever
