A Verse To My Small Children

On Father's Day
My gift to you

Don't be afraid to come to me
With whatever's on your mind.

I promise an open heart and ear
And it is what you will always find.

 

Your thoughts are important to me and mean the world to me.

It is because you are my gift from God,
And I want to see you fulfill your destiny.

 

I laid my hands on you and blessed you when you were small.

 

That your talents would take you before kings,
you will be known to all.

You were named to be great
And this you must not forget.

 

When you need someone to talk
Or someone just to listen

I'm always a phone call away
You are not an imposition.

 

Speak to me your thoughts
Share with me your fears.

 

Don't be afraid to come to me
I'll be there to wipe away your tears.

 

Don't be afraid to come to me
Whether we smile or laugh.

 

I will feel your good and bad
This we will always have.

 

Your father,
