My Poem for my Dad.... "Endless Love."

I've written a poem JUST for Bear... that I hold near and dear to my heart.
I hope you all enjoy it.

God made the sun, wind and flowers
Our Lord, has mighty and tremendous powers.
Nineteen years ago, you were deeply in love
So much so, that God whispered
To a beautiful white dove
And He decided... to send you a little girl from above.

Growing up, you told me that I was your Angel
Sent to you up from heaven
You told me that I was your everything
That my voice was beautiful...
When I would always sing.
My laughter as loud as a bell's ring.

Dad, you have taught me to be brave and strong
Now, I'm finding that the time has come
It's time for me to fly, and move along.
Words cannot describe how grateful I am to know you
Each and everyday, I pray for just one moment longer...
Having no idea- that the prayers have made me stronger.

But Dad, that's not the only thing that's made me strong.
Your compassion, your smile and your Endless Love
Have been so much.... enough for me
That when it's time.... I know someday I will join you up above.
Thank you......for always being a part of my life for so long.

With that in mind, I leave you with one other poem that I cherish. It wasn't written by me, but the words speak volumes.



"Cancer is so limited...
It cannot cripple love.
It cannot shatter hope.
It cannot corrode faith.
It cannot eat away peace.
It cannot destroy confidence.
It cannot kill friendship.
It cannot shut out memories.
It cannot silence courage.
It cannot reduce eternal life.
It cannot quench the Spirit."
