Although you said You didn't do it for me...You really did!
You Did It For Me
by Dick Waters
100 Word Flash Fiction Contest Winner
Every step of the way you were there, telling me, 'You couldn't do it for me.'
I remember trying to learn to ride, and you telling me, "Try it one more time...I can't do it for you."
I remember falling down on the ice, as you forced me to learn to skate. Once again, your words, "Do it one more time...I can't do it for you."
I heard those words often, 'I can't do it for you.'
However, there's a common thread in all of my learning...you were there for me.
Dad, -- listen closely, 'YOU did, do it, for me!
