THE SWEET MAGIC DAD

Folder: 
JOURNAL # 41

gradually
I realized
that is what I've been missing
'The Sweet Magic Dad'
the one I spoke before
of never having had
the daddy in my head
who always lived so vibrantly alive
in the safety of my thoughts
and never long like reality
ever laid dead
though Dad he was
to me
he never was
the spirit cheered him on
in many instances
as a child
God and he meshed
almost as one
and then I was blessed
to read
A FATHER'S LOVE LETTER
and concluded just why
it was like this
for God is better than any
earthly father
and all those years
even as a child
I was longing for God
the ultimate Dad
far more so
than my long since deceased
fallible earthly father
and in an epiphany
the confusion was cracked
and illusion was disposed of
how blessed I was and still am
I relied all my life
unknowingly on
the best Father of them all
and my life has been far more
than just my life
to this date and far, far beyond
he's abundantly demonstrated
just that
tirelessly so
so Thank You God
thank you my giver of life
but best of all
Thank You Dad...............

thinking about my dad who died when I was a toddler and how as a child I got so many things confused and how I sorted them out in my soul, heart and head.
