In Memoriam 21 October 1946 - 13 April 2006
+++++++++++++++++++++++
Here we are again,
The time we speak outside churches,
I wonder if You still hear me,
Or are these empty ventures,
Yet, as the youngest looks at Your picture,
With a knowing I can't comprehend,
I figure You held his face,
Before You gave him to my hand,
Since You taught me to walk Ma,
I had to learn to do it thrice again,
Maybe You didn't want me,
To run too fast to the end,
The gaping hole you left,
Has maybe been filled somewhat,
But the gravity of Your memory,
Will always hold the orbit of my heart,
I forget most days Ma,
Yet , Today always finds me,
As the church bells ring today.
Please bless the ones beside me....
