My Father

A father I know but never knew
A father who was there but not really there
He stood there like an angel
Who was noticed
Yet all this years he was unnoticed
A father who's love was never felt
But above all else he was welcomed
A father who was there in my dreams
But in reality he was no where to be found
Where could he have been all this years?
When he was needed
The day came
He entered with a smile
Like everything was okay
And I knew God had answered my prayers
No questions asked
Just a warm welcome hug he received.
