Thanks Dad, I Love You - Joyce Bedora

Thanks Dad, 
I Love You

As I look back upon my life, 
It’s hard to comprehend. 
The fullness of my father’s love, 
It seems to have no end. 

His patience and his guidance, 
And his Kind and loving ways. 
The special thoughtful things he did 
To brighten up my days. 

The love in his protectiveness
Which took so long to learn,
Was really there to show me
That he had a deep concern.

Now as I look through older eyes, 
Your love for God made you so wise. 
So, these are just a few things, Dad, 
“I love and thank you for.”
Until we meet again someday, 
On heaven’s golden shore.
