Kisses in the Air


I wrote this in my head as I watched my seven-year-old daughter, Iszabella, play her first softball game.

Through the chain link fence,
I see a little girl.

She's playing in the outfield.
Playing in her own little world.

She keeps glancing over,
making sure Daddy's still there.

I kiss my hand and blow on it,
Sending her kisses in the air.


Whenever I feel down, I think of my children and realize how fortunate I am to be their father.

Your daughter loved that you wrote about her playing softball with a big smile on her face. That alone is reason enough to keep on writing.
