To My Loving Father:



God saw he was getting tired,

and a cure was not to be,

So he put his arms around him

And whispered “Come with me”

With tearful hearts we watched

Him fade away

Although we loved him dearly

We could not make him stay.

A golden heart stopped beating

Hard working hands to rest

God broke our hearts to prove to us,

HE ONLY TAKES THE BEST.



I will always love you dad...your loving daughther...Charmaine.
