Father

Father, where are you? Please come dry my tears There is no one to hear me And erase all my fears. Father, where are you? It's been far too long That your arms held me Tightly,safely,and strong Father, where are you? When I turn off the light Can you tuck me into bed And kiss me good night. Father,where are you? I held your photo today And hoped your smile Would brighten my day Father, where are you? Did you hear me today? As I whispered your name And wept from the pain Father, where are you? I hope you found joy In Gods home in heaven with Mom and the Lord. Father, Where are you? Are you watching me write? Are you filled with pride As I kiss my kids goodnight? Father, Where are you? I've been very blessed My husband is a good man And our children are the best Father, where are you? I just want you to see The wonderful foundation That you helped build for me Father, where are you? I want to know that you know You are with me every moment And with me everywhere I go. Father, where are you? You are in my kids faces, And in love that we share. Every day I feel you so near. I Love you Dad. Happy Fathers Day

One feels your heart in every phrase. A longing for the good ole days. A time when now the time is gone. And we are left to carry on. Somehow, I feel your father felt every heart beat of this daughters lamenting tribute. Beautiful Brenda. Peace. :)
