Poems for my Dad! <3

Dad!

Dad…so many images come to mind,

Whenever I speak your name,

It seems without you in my life,

Things have never been the same,

What happened to those lazy days?

When I was just a child,

When my life was consumed in you,

In your love, and in your smile,

What happened to all those times?

When I always looked to you,

No matter what happened in my life,

You could make my grey skies blue,

Dad, some days I hear your voice,

And turn to see your face,

Yet, in my turning…it seems,

The sound has been erased,

Dad, who will I turn to for answers?

When, life does not make sense,

Who will be there to hold me close?

When the pieces just don’t fit,

Oh, Dad, if I could turn back time,

And once more hear your voice,

I’d tell you that out of all the dads,

You would still be my choice,

Please always know I love you,

And no one can take your place,

Years may come and go,

But your memory will never be erased,

Today, Jesus, as you are listening,

In your home above,

Would you go and find my dad,

And give him all my love.
