"Whole Note"

Debbie Gemmill
from The Chance to Say Goodbye

Reprinted with the author's permission

Dear Friends,
This was written a few years after Ty's death.

The father
and his freckled girl
play a canon
a sweet piece
which always makes me cry.

With each note they play
I blink away a dreamfilled tear.

What symphonies
were lost
for a father
and his son.

Debbie Gemmill
Father's Day, 1988
