Dear Father

Charla Antonio 1991 (arkansas)



Dear Father hear my prayer,
let me know she is really there.
Can she feel our endless love?
As she watches us from up above.

Dear Father hear my cry,
let her know this was not goodbye.
For one day we will meet again,
but her memory stays in our hearts till then.

Dear Father hear my plea,
her beautiful smile i long to see.
Just one more hug or one more touch,
just to tell her that i love her so much.

Dear Father i know shes happy now,
and all her pain has gone away.
But here on earth it hurts so much,
and i wish she would come back to stay.
