They light up my life!


Poem Artwork

A gift from God, so small, so pure, so innocent, and wrapped in heavens glow.
I look into those trusting eyes, as I caress this precious soul.
I thank my Lord, I had a part in lighting, this new flame,
of bringing light and giving life, for thinking of a name.

Now, in this time of turning, grey, and looking back,
a lot has come and gone, but I can still feel that time of awe,
when the first, came along.

I've thru the years, always kept a place in my heart, for the girls,
with three of my own, and many who are God Daughters,
One's always in my immediate, NOW, and they mean the world to me,
cause my role in all their lives, has been, that, HIS, way, they, learn to see, and in His loving Grace they dwell, for all eternity.

They're scattered, all thru out this land, I see them when I can,
and it's so great when they come, see me,
and with the God Daughters I have now, I've plenty of places to be.
I'm looking forward in the, spring to meet my latest,
her name is, Anna Marie, and she, will, the Torch Bearer, exemplify,
and a powerful, mighty, woman of God, be.

So thank you Lord, for blessing me the way you,
always, and ever, do,
and thank you for letting me share the, role, and title of: Father,
with, You.

This piece is God's love expressed through the heart of a doting father.

To be a loving father to a cherished daughter is a relationship like no other, truly a gift of God.

Thanks for sharing, Art. Wonderful!

Art,
A beautiful and tender write. What a precious child...and Daddy! It's always been so obvious, how deeply you love your girls, and now, you've even gone and spread your wings over mine! Your love is certainly a reflection of the Heavenly Father's ...Anna-Marie and I thank you, with tear-filled eyes... and grateful hearts.
Be blessed, General Proctor!
Love&Hugs, Rhonda
