The beginning of this poem was written by my uncle right before he passed away. I finished the poem in memory of him . He is greatly missed !

Forever i'll be king, because I hold the light,
with sword in hand, I reach across the sky
To light the light that gives me wings to fly.
Soaring across the sky to reach the promised land,
out of the clouds appears a helping hand
Parting the clouds so I can see
hard to belive it was all for me.
You are God's child, you are.
You are God's child, a star.
You are the king of stars child you are.
A golden light brighter than the sun,
I looked up and began to run
the castle built so perfectly for me
I love you child can't you see?
You are God's child, you are
You are God's child, a star
You are the king of stars child you are.
I reached out and touched his hand
I finally reached the promised land,
it reminds me of my very last day
I love you child more than I can say.
You are God's child, you are
You are God's child a star
You are the king of stars child you are.

This is a beautiful piece, my friend. I'm sure you made your uncle proud. Keep up the good work!
