To my God above

I can't see you
but I sense you there,
a watchful parent
that loves me more
than any soul
on the Earth
has the strength to,
or even pretend
 that they do, 
I have never seen you, 
but I love you
so much more
than all of
life's toys
and great pleasures 
of this ever shrinking
journey
that we call life, 
one day I will
see when I
exit the stage 
of existence,
you are my 
hope, and my great 
mighty helper,
and though
my life is a
giant Easter sized 
basket of flaws
you love me,
with an ocean of
endless forgiveness
and you came 
down to
Earth covering me
with a shield
of perfection
that I in
my own 
vain efforts,
that are like
reaching to
the moon,
that in all
my days will
never take me
to, without you.
