A Prayer to My Daddy

A Prayer To My Daddy

dear god,
i send this prayer to you as quickly as i can
this prayer is for my daddy, lord
he's up there with you right now
and i know he's looking down upon me
i really wish i could see him at least once
but i know that's not going to happen
i just want to let him know that i love him
even though i never met him
i know he loves me, because i feel it in my heart
just tell him that i appreciate him watching over me
and i'm grateful that i have a father for a guardian angel
tell him to wait for me by those sparkling gates
when i see him i can run to him
so i can give him a hug and a kiss for the first time ever
also tell him that i know he'll be there with me on my graduation day
even though i can't see or touch him
i will also know that he'll be by my side when i'm getting married
but tell him not to get mad
when my step-dad walks me down the aisle
let him know that i will always be thinking of him
everyday and every night
send this to him also...
i love you and i miss you daddy
amen
