This was really good. It had good content, good flow, and it rhymed well, it must have been a special moment singing this to your father. God bless you in this time.

Sounds like your dad is an all American Hero, one in which you can be very proud to call Dad.
May the Lord strengthen, comfort, and give you and your family peace in the midst of all that's going on.
Very well done, Buck

Katie,

When a poem touches me as this one has, it gets a six. I loved it all from beginning to end, and I was a soldier, not a marine. Great song.

Even before I read about your father's diagnosis, I liked your poem but didn't realize it is a song. It's wonderful that you were able to sing it to him.

Hi Katie,
I was so excited to see a notice in my PM that you posted something today. But when I saw the picture and read your poem-song and your notes, my heart broke. I'm so sorry to hear about your dad. I'll pray for strength and comfort for the whole family. I can sense your peace and surrender to God on this matter through this sad time. I'm sure you are surrounded with lots of prayers and Christian love too.
What a beautiful song you have written for your dad..
Well done.
Love and hugs,
Anabella


God's arms, their (they're) open wide

    Anabella, thank you so much for the prayers. I believe that prayer is what is getting us through this. I wasn't sure if I should post this, being such a personal piece and than I though that my friends here should know too, so they can be praying. Thanks for catching my miss spell too. LOL

Wonderful poem, a very spirited tribute to your father. I don't think I want to see the video... I don't look good in tears. Your father is in my prayers, and I will thank God for His gift of this fine warrior's service and sacrifice for our country. Beautiful work. Blessing to you. Sean
