Dear Daddy

Dear Daddy,

God has let me watch you
for a very long, long time,
standing up in Heaven
with reason and rhyme.
Watching and learning
the kind of man you are,
now I long to hold you
and never be too far.
These things I won't remember
when I am there on Earth,
so I pray that you will teach me
the realization of your worth.
Hold my hand and love me
just like I know you will,
love and be there for Mommy
I am her big thrill.
Not too much longer
and my journey of life will start,
so be with me forever
and hold me in your heart.
