Happy Birthday

I send the words “Happy Birthday” on the wings of a dove,
through the gray clouds that always mar this day.
Hoping its wings are strong enough to make it through the gates,
and find its way to your feet.
When the dove lands, will you know who it’s from?
Will you know that our hearts will never heal?
Will you know how much you’re missed? That you are still truly loved?
I can only pray and hope that you do.

Happy Birthday, Dad. I love you….
