Going Through the Grief
IN years past, there was a man,
he brought joy to all who knew him
A smile always on his face,
he whistled as he walked.
He met and married a beautiful woman,
so gentle and so sweet,
so much happiness did abound.
It was probably one of the greatest loves
that was ever found.
Following God in all they did
this was their special vow.
Many children were their gifts,
beautiful and joyful each day they shared
doing everything according to God's plan
instilling honor and loyalty in each one.
Teaching them that family was
the truest kind of love.
Loving each other through everything
the good and the not-so-good
though I cannot count the not-so-good
even on one hand.
The memories of true love
are all I really have.
The challenges of growing children
were probably the greatest that there were,
but with God and them together
and so many prayers
they always made it through.
And time goes on, as it always does
a full life I know he had.
So much joy, because that's what he was
so much love, because that's what he gave
so much of everything good
because that is all he wanted
for everyone he knew.
A life well lived, I can't be sad
I am so grateful he was my Dad
