Daddy's Day

Its daddy’s day I went to work At my fathers every turn Hanging on to every word Until I saw the birdie It was huge Coming ever closer Sneaking up on me I turned to see But it was gone My daddy told me It was time to go We ran down the steps I was on his shoulders It was a bumpy ride Everyone was running around me I asked why? He said it was the birdie I turned around but I couldn’t see But there were to many people around me We were heading to the bottom Everyone was following me They pushed and shoved Until I fell from my daddy’s arms I called and called “Daddy” Everyone stepped on me still I sat on the ground and cried out Still my daddy didn’t come Then the birdie came He crashed into my daddy’s office And sent the floor crashing down On to me and everyone else still inside I woke up in a place of beauty And found the angels looking at me They told me of everything There was to know I was in gods grace now And he loved me They tell me it won’t be long Til daddy comes to get me
