I See You

I see you in 
fresh white snow
In the morning dew
In an ocean blue
On a mountain top
In an eagles flight
Your brothers eyes
And his little cries
I feel you in 
The softness of 
Your sisters skin
My heart within
I hear you when
My heart beats fast
A choir sings
A school bell rings
My mind keeps you
Tucked away
In a secret place
Your little face
I see sometimes
As I drift off
Me holding you
As I would do
If you were here
And I could be
A father to 
Not two, but three

Know the feelings of a lost child, this one touched my heart. Not an easy thing to do. Excellent write gave it the highest rating I could.
