It angers me to no end what has been taken from us, especially from my adorable granddaughter who has lost her father.
I saw this poem on my Facebook timeline, and it brought comfort to me.
While my granddaughter, Kammy, has the most amazing mom and I thank God for her every day, I have to remember John is always watching over his beautiful daughter no matter where he is.
A Father’s Watchful Eye
From heaven’s gate, I see you grow,
With every step, my heart does glow.
Though distance keeps us far apart,
You’re always here within my heart.
I watch you laugh, I see you cry,
In every tear, I’m standing by.
Your joys, your pains, I feel them too,
For every moment, I’m with you.
The stars at night, they shine so bright,
A father’s love, a guiding light.
In dreams, I whisper soft and clear,
“My darling girl, I’m always near.”
So live your life with courage bold,
And know my love will never fold.
From heaven’s height, I watch with pride,
My precious daughter, my heart’s guide.
