> Daddy's Day at School

> > Her hair was up in a ponytail

> >
> > Today was Daddy's Day at school,
> > And she couldn't wait to go.
> >
> > But her mommy tried to tell her,
> > That she probably should stay home.
> > Why the kids might not understand,

> > But she was not afraid;
> > She knew just what to say.
> > What to tell her classmates
> > Of why he wasn't there today.
> >
> > But still her mother worried,
> > For her to face this day alone.

> > She tried to keep her daughter home.
> >
> > But the little girl went to school,
> > Eager to tell them all.
> > About a dad she never sees
> > A dad who never calls.
> >
> > There were daddies along the wall in back,
> > For everyone to meet.
> > Children squirming impatiently,
> > Anxious in their seats.
> >
> > One by one the teacher called,
> > A student from the class.
> > To introduce their daddy,
> > As seconds slowly passed.
> >
> > At last the teacher called her name,
> > Every child turned to stare.
> > Each of them was searching,
> > For a man who wasn't there.
> >
> > "Where's her daddy at?"
> > She heard a boy call out.
> > "She probably doesn't have one,"
> > Another student dared to shout.
> >
> > And from somewhere near the back,
> > She heard a daddy say,
> > "Looks like another deadbeat dad,
> > Too busy to waste his day."
> >
> > The words did not offend her,
> > As she smiled up at her Mom.
> > And looked back at her teacher,
> > Who told her to go on.
> >
> > And with hands behind her back,
> > Slowly she began to speak.
> > And out from the mouth of a child,
> > Came words incredibly unique.
> >
> > "My Daddy couldn't be here,
> > Because he lives so far away.
> > But I know he wishes he could be,
> > Since this is such a special day.
> >
> > And though you cannot meet him,
> > I wanted you to know.
> > All about my daddy,
> > And how much he loves me so.
> >
> > He loved to tell me stories
> > He taught me to ride my bike.
> > He surprised me with pink roses,
> > And taught me to fly a kite.
> >
> > We used to share fudge sundaes,
> > And ice cream in a cone.
> > And though you cannot see him,
> > I'm not standing here alone.
> >
> > "Cause my daddy's always with me,
> > Even though we are apart
> > I know because he told me,
> > He'll forever be in my heart"
> >
> > With that, her little hand reached up,
> > And lay across her chest.
> > Feeling her own heartbeat,
> > Beneath her favorite dress.
> >
> > And from somewhere in the crowd of dads,
> > Her mother stood in tears.
> > Proudly watching her daughter,
> > Who was wise beyond her years.
> >
> > For she stood up for the love
> > Of a man not in her life..
> > Doing what was best for her,
> > Doing what was right.
> >
> > And when she dropped her hand back down,
> > Staring straight into the crowd.
> > She finished with a voice so soft,
> > But its message clear and loud.
> >
> > "I love my daddy very much,
> > He's my shining star.
> > And if he could, he'd be here,
> > But heaven's just too far.
> >
> > You see he was a fireman
> > And died just this past year
> > When airplanes hit the towers
> > And taught Americans to fear.
> >
> > But sometimes when I close my eyes,
> > It's like he never went away."
> > And then she closed her eyes,
> > And saw him there that day.
> >
> > And to her mother's amazement,
> > She witnessed with surprise.
> > A room full of daddies and children,
> > All starting to close their eyes..
> >
> > Who knows what they saw before them,
> > Who knows what they felt inside.
> > Perhaps for merely a second,
> > They saw him at her side.
> >
> > "I know you're with me Daddy,"
> > To the silence she called out.
> > And what happened next made believers,
> > Of those once filled with doubt.
> >
> > Not one in that room could explain it,
> > For each of their eyes had been closed.
> > But there on the desk beside her,
> > Was a fragrant long-stemmed pink rose.
> >
> > And a child was blessed,
> > if only for a moment,
> > By the love of her shining bright star.
> > And given the gift of believing,
> > That heaven is never too far
> >
> > They say it takes a minute to find a

> > then an entire life to forget them.
> >
> > Send this phrase to the people you'll never
> > forget and remember to send
> > it also to the person that sent it to you.
> > It's short message to let them know that
> > you'll never forget them.
> >
> > If you don't send it to anyone, it means
> > you're in a hurry and that
> > you've forgot your friends.
> > Take the time...to live and love.

> > Until eternity. God bless
