Dear Jesus,
Momma says your Daddy's name is God.
Maybe when I come to see you in heaven,
I can meet him.
I don't think you want to meet my Daddy,
he is mean, and he hits Mommy.
I don't love him.
Can your Daddy be my Daddy too?
Momma says he is a good Daddy.
I would love him.
Momma said that when I have a bad dream,
I can sleep in your Daddy's lap,
and he will wipe away all my tears.
One of the most moving and
touching poems I have ever
read...
This heart-felt letter to
Jesus surely defines that
search for meaning by all
those who find it hard to
imagine God's Heavenl-Fatherly
love when this love does not
exist in their earthly - flesh
and blood dadddy...
What a piece of thoughtful
beauty - a peaceful sweetness
in its bitter experience!
