Happy Father's Day... I Miss You.

Dulcie from Danville, United States

Oh, all set up for a party (Father's Day?) but no one to come? Whether it's distance or death that separates us...it can be painful. This is a moving photo, and of course reminds me of my Father who will only share Father's Day in my heart.

Bill Jennings from (Bay Area Northern Calif), United States

A great tribute to the empty chair. Your dad, I'm sure, is proud of you: and he is there today with you in spirit, I'm sure. As Dulcie says, whether it's distance, or death: an absence is still painful.
