#24 In memory of PaPa
I never knew
how much you meant to me
until the earth quaked
as your breath began to shake
and I knew that time
had passed on by
you used to hold my hand
just like I hold the dirt
you're buried in
death runs through sands of time
but yet in life
you stood up to crime
so violent in our minds
and bravely you fought
as you risked your life for freedom
I never could imagine
how deeply your love ran
but as the sands of time
wash away
we grab onto the memory
of days long past
and we pray that tonight
you take away the sadness left behind
you used to hold my hand
like I hold the dirt you're buried in
running through my fingers
like the sands of time
I grab at the memories
that I wont let leave my mind
like the times you smiled at me
and made the troubles turn to ease
but I know you passed us by
on the wings of a dove
carrying you up
to the sky's above
the golden path you walk
and the days pass us by
as we lift up our prayers
a new journeys day to right
and in the sparkling light
is a smile so bright
filling us with joy and love
making us alright
and as the dove
fly's high above
we know were loved
from the one man
watching from above
There are as many nights as days, and the one is just as long as the
other in the year's course. Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and
the word 'happy' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.
--Carl Jung
I seldom think about my limitations, and they never make me sad. Perhaps there is just
a touch of yearning at times; but it is vague, like a breeze among flowers.
--Helen Keller

Beginnings are scary. Endings are usually sad, but it's what's in the
middle that counts. So, when you find yourself at the beginning, just give hope a chance
to float up. And it will.

Sadness flies away on the wings of time.
--Jean de La Fontaine
