One of my favorite poems which i found online


Guys i am not aware of who has written these words, or who is the poet but the poem is amazing. Friends i am sure u will also like it as much as i like it. Each and every word is a tribute to my loving dad. It says how much a child misses her/his dad and in return what her/his dad replies back.

We're never ready to say goodbye To someone we hold dear. If it were up to us, dear Dad, We'd always keep you here. But God has reasons of His own And plans we cannot know, And these are always for our good, Though it may seem not so. Our arms are empty and our hearts Are filled with tears and grief, For we who loved each day with you, Now find those days too brief. Yet if we could only heaven see, We'd know you're happy there, And we would never call you back When such great joy you share. And so we'll trust you to God's great care And know some day, once more, We'll hold you to our hearts again When we reach heaven's shore.

Just read these words and read the words written below this is the reply a child gets from her father. Guys its amazing. Hats off to the poet.

To those I love and those who love me When I am gone, release me, let me go I have so many things to see and do. You mustn't tie yourself to me with tears, Be happy that we had so many years. I gave you my love, you can only guess How much you gave to me in happiness. I thank you for the love you each have shown, But now it's time I traveled on alone. So grieve a while for me, if grieve you must, Then let your grief be comforted by trust. It's only for a while that we must part So bless the memories within your heart. I won't be far away, for life goes For if you need me, call and I will come. Though you can't see or touch me, I'll be near, And if you listen with your heart, you'll hear All of my love around you soft and clear. And then, when you must come this way alone, I'll greet you with a smile and "Welcome Home".

Do you guys agree to me??? I am sure you will becos these words are the words i would use to my dad as i miss him. I love you dad and miss u toos
