Wow, how time has passed,
can you stll remember running through the tall grass.
I know your time is coming soon.
but please, not in this passing moon.
Your faith is high' so they say,
so i will still hope and pray.
When you reach the other side, Tell your son that his brother says hi.

Your Son.

this is wrenching and tugs at the heart.
sad but beautiful, welcome "back" to Passions.

I can be your hero baby ... I will kiss away the pain
I will stand by you forever ... you still take my breath away ...

Greg,
This is very touching. So well done. Bless you! (I wrote a poem titled Son of Mine)

*sigh* such a heartfelt poem. What a wonderful tribute to your father. Your love for him shines in every word you have written. Thank you for sharing it with me.  

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

Ouch.  This one has a bit of a sting to it.  I sense you miss your brother a lot, but hope you take comfort int he fact that he is in a better place.  Great expression of emotion here.  

Welcome to Passions, Greg!!  

All writing comes
by the grace of God.
