If I could send a birthday card to Heaven, <br />it would have the most amazing butterflies. <br />And the words that say “I love you now and always”, <br />with hugs and kisses in between the lines. <br /> <br />If I could send a birthday card to Heaven, <br />I would write down all the thank you’s never said. <br />And tell you just how precious you have been to me, <br />and how I have admired the life you led. <br /> <br />If I could send a birthday card to Heaven, <br />I would say that I was blessed that you were mine. <br />And apologize for all the grief I gave to you, <br />how I wish that I could see you one more time. <br /> <br />If I could send a birthday card to Heaven, <br />I would write down that I miss you being here. <br />I would say I know you love your new forever, <br />and I’ll see you when forever brings me near. <br /> <br />If I could send a birthday card to Heaven, <br />I would say you are the best I could have had. <br />That I’m happy you are free of pain and sorrow, <br />and I'd seal it with, 'Love you forever Dad'.<br /><br />Kathleen Viaes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/if-i-could-send-a-birthday-card-to-heaven/
