A WISH ON ALL SOUL'S DAY
Melvin Banggollay


I have only one wish to pray
On the day of all sou's day
That I will see my Dad's smile
I missed for an endless mile.

How happy I am if on that day
All the dead will visit their family
Wearing a windsome smile
Even just a minute full of desire.

When I visited my Daddy's grave
along with my younger brother,
grandmother who died of old age
I wish that I'll see them all together
by a wink of an eye as I prayed
with burning candles and flowers.

As my tears falls upon their grave
I prayed to God to take their soul
and grant what my heart's craved
To see them standing as I recall
their memories unburried by grave.

I missed my loving Dad so much
Specially when I am in great trouble
For he was more than just a father,
a protector, freind and provider
helping me carry every life strife
be it my financial or emotional life
be it my own family and private life.
