Dear Dad in Heaven, thinking of you and missing you on this Father's Day. I sit here and ponder how very much I'd like to hear your voice and see your smile and just to sit and talk to you would be my dearest wish today. Please fill my heart with all the warmth I've missed so much since you went away. You guided me and brought me strength, you filled each day with love, and now you send me courage from your resting place above. But I'm holding back the tears today remembering anew those wonderful and precious years spent happily with you. If roses grow in heaven, God please pick a bunch for me, place them in my father's arms and tell him they're from me. Tell him I love him and miss him, and when he turns to smile, place a kiss upon his cheek and hold him for awhile because remembering him is easy. I do it every day, but there's an ache within my heart that will never go away. May the winds of Heaven blow softly and whisper in your ear how much we love and miss you and wish that you were here. Until we meet again...
