‘Uncle John’s orchestrating the rest of your life up there right now’ Aunt Kathy whispers this to my ear As she smiles… holding back the tears While we hold each other for comfort Giving us the strength to go on Destroying the emptiness That keeps us from falling apart Sadness Taken in his prime God isn't the only one that knows What he left behind... One wife Two sons A daughter to be… And a grandson to come Smile Not all is wrong All shall be well Death is only the beginning For this is only the end of one path Flight John has not left us He has reached immortality His soul, his essence lives on Eternally Forevermore Now he has a new task Given to him by god To look down on those he love And guide them through their journey Known as life Conductor He shall orchestrate from above For all of us As long as we keep him in our hearts And in our thoughts John shall always be here to help us Along our way Homesorry for not being there this weekend... I know your here though now... Written February 6th, 2002 © on Feb 06 2002 11:40 AM PST   18 • 0 • 13
