ELEGY Poem: Daddy, by Nina Nicole Garner

I look in the mirror
when I miss you
I put on your hat
and my daughter
tells me “You look like Papa”
because I do

these pieces of you
that are you and are not you
because they are me
I carry you with me
everywhere I go
and now I understand

that I always have
