My father was a fisherman. He had his own boat, but it was hard 51 a living on the sea. He worked hard and would 52 out until he caught enough to feed the family. He was a big man and was strong from pulling the 53 and fighting the sea for his catch.
When you got 54 to him, he smelled like the ocean. However much Mother washed his clothes, they would 55 smell of the sea and fish.
He had an old truck and would drive me to school when the weather was 56 . He used his truck in is his fishing 57 . On the way to school, the old truck would 58 a cloud of smoke. Soon he would stop right in front of the school. Then he would 59 over and give me a big 60 on the cheek and tell me to be a good boy. It was so uncomfortable for me. Here, I was twelve years old and 61 old for a goodbye kiss!
One day, when we got to the school, he had his usual big 62 . He started to lean toward me, but I 63 my hand up and said, “No, Dad. I don’t want a goodbye kiss.” Then he had a(n) 64 look on his face, and he looked at me for a long time. I saw his eyes were 65 with tears. “Yes, you have grown up and don’t need a kiss any more. Then I won’t … ” he said.
It wasn’t long after that when my father went to 66 and never came back.
No one knows 67 I would give to have my father give me just one 68 kiss on the cheek … to feel his rough old face … to 69 the ocean on him … to feel his arm around my 70 . I wish I had been a man then. If I had been a man, I would never have told him I didn’t like his goodbye kiss.
