Daddy Time

June 18, 2020

My puppy woke up early for some daddy time.
It’s not my normal way to write a rhyme.

She’s in my lap, I rocked her back to sleep.
She’s sleeping lightly now, it’s not too deep.

Perhaps I have the time to write some lines.
If not, I’ll need to find an older rhyme.

I’m rocking gently, she seems quite content,
A different quiet time than most I’ve spent.

It’s almost light, and she will want to play,
I guess she’ll dominate my rhyme today.

God’s in control, he knows my heart.
He knew the way this day would start.

I can share with him throughout the day.
He always there to hear the words I say.

God hears my prayers at any time or place,
If I take time to seek my Daddy’s face.

I rise up early, read and write my rhyme.
It’s my own way of having Daddy time.

    Wow, John! That’s profound. I recall a time when I got up early to spend time with the Father. In a matter of just two mornings, my kids were in my lap almost as soon as i got settled. It seemed like Mommy Time instead of Daddy time.

    Writing rhymes about you and God diffidently gives you time to be with God, and he does know what you and I think, say & write. I am honored to have a friend like you.
