Thinking of you

 

We stand here alone

Yet not at all

Your spirit is with in us

Always by our side

 

You left us so suddenly

Only in a physical sense

As you've us all

In our hearts you will be

 

We've gained your strength

That was imbedded in all

We stand together as a team

Willing the world to take us on

 

The tears we've shed

Will subside over time

We'll still think of you

And know you are near

As if you didn't leave


Your spirit is ready to fly

Even if we weren't ready at all

It leaves the world we know

To the one in the sky

 

Fly Papa Fly

Fly Dad Fly

As mom listens to these words

She holds us all near

 

His brother holds his kids

And takes four more into sight

And swears to make things right

 

With family and friends alike

We watch you go out of sight

We stand up straight

To face the world we know

Always knowing you will never really leave our side.

 

Fly Papa Fly
Fly Dad Fly
Fly Art Fly

To those spirits already waiting in the sky

Sibyl,

Again, I'm very sorry for your loss. I really like the poem you wrote in your Father's memory!

Hugs,

Terri
