Analysis of To my Dad Andrew McCray
Dad,I can't seem to
understand why you
left me.
And this one little word
that keeps haunting me
is my question.
Why?
I search the deepest of
oceans and the bluest of
skies.But that one little
word remains in my mind.
Why?
I miss my dad very much.
I would give anything to
see my dad again.
