Dear Lord

I need a favor and you say that one must ask.
                            For anything is possible and Life's not ment to last.
                            Lord father's Day is almost here and Mother's day has passed.
                            I know he dwells within your house were he will always stay.  

                            Please send my Daddy to me on this special day.

                            I want to see his face once more and here his loving voice.
                            I guess it was his calling and he didn't have a choice.
                            I want to say we miss him and wished that he were here.
                            I want to say we love him in case he didn't hear.
                            I want to tell the family what he had to say.

                            Cause we are all together every Father's day.

                            The boys need him in their life to whisper in his ear.
                            The girl's need his bouncing lap to comfort them from fear.
                            Mom misses him dearly but surely she has found.
                            Comfort in her heart cause she says your still around.
                            You left us with so many things that never fade away.
                            So here's my chance to tell you through this special way.

                            Thank you Lord so very much!

                            Dad Happy Father's Day.

I'M Afraid

I'm afraid of
Getting old
I know it has to be.

I'm afraid of
My reflection
And what I have to see.

I'm afraid of
My body changing
Right in front of me.

I'm afraid of
Getting gray hair
Where black use to be.

I'm afraid of
Getting wrinkles
Where smooth skin I use to see.

I'm afraid of
Getting false teeth
Where real ones use to be.

I'm afraid of
Gaining weight
When thin is in you see.

I'm afraid of 
My eyes closing
And black is all I'll see.

I'm afraid of
Leaving my children
With anyone else but me.

I'm afraid of
Who will dye first
My sibling or either me.

I'm afraid of
Seeing my mother
Like my grandmom use to be
For she is 94 now and aged so gracefully.

I'm afraid of
Knowing weather I can be
A fallower of the Lord
Like they have done for he.

I'm afraid of
When I'll get to see 
My father who's in heaven now
And waiting there for me.

I'm afraid of 
Being in a world
Where getting old should be
A time to share your journey
With someone afraid to see.

Why Is It That When?

Why is it that?
Going to church make me cringe.

Is it because of the days way back when?
My Grandma would tell me the worlds going to end.

Is it because of years, the last days we live in?
Or is the fear that's triggered by sin.

Is it because of the drums, when the Pastor speaks?
That I might throw up my hands, and dance on my feet.

Is it because of the water, that sets up in the pew?
Your dipped  a sinner, and pulled out clensed and brand new?

Is it because I know, I'll have to live straight?
So when it's my time, I'll enter God's gates.

Is it because of Mother. who just wants to see?
When God comes for them , he'll also take me.

Is it because there's no time, nor a date?
When the sky opens  to wonder your fate. 

Is it because, of the words sent from Heaven up high?
You must love the God that lives in the sky.
