There are tears on my cheeks,
But a smile on my face.
Though deep inside I know you've gone,
Your memory is still one,
Even time cannot erase.
I can't help not to cry,
As I watch you fade away.
I can't help but to wonder why,
Yet I know it's all okay.
I was certain you'd leave me sometime,
Only I was hoping not today.
As your soul departs my side at the coming of dawn,
You were a part of me,
And now a part is gone.

          Dedicated to Mr. A.T. Vinson...


What don't kill you can only make you stronger...

Lovely tribute.  May the sadness in your heart, turn to happiness very soon.  

All writing comes
by the grace of God.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
