My Father

Prayers would mean a lot to me and my family. Just pray that my father has nothing wrong with his heart.

My Father

I remember back when I was a little girl

I would always wait by the door

Till my daddy got home from work

Now I am a woman

I come home after he does

And I smile when I see him home

My father works every single day

To keep us off the streets

He puts food on our plates

And fills me with all his love

He lays awake at night

Worrying about all of us

Now I know where I got it from

Because I do the exact same thing

Once I hear his truck pull up in the driveway

I take a breathe and say “he is home”

One day he is going to have to watch me walk out the door

Live my own life..

And have another man take me in his honor

But I will always be my father's little girl <3

What a glowing tribut to your daddy. I lost my daddy when I was in my teens. I miss him so.

Daughters will always be their daddy's little girl. I am 60 years old and when I remember fondly of my daddy. I'm a little girl again

This was a wonderful poem and makes me miss my dad a lot. My father died of lung cancer not too long ago, so this touches my heart.
