By nyjohn00
I have been Alone for so, so long a time My momma left for heaven I was just thirteen at that time Living here with sister Moving to my other one My dad would come and visit God I wanted him to stay Now they both are gone I like to think and imagine How they would be today What would they think of you Would they adopt you as their own I picture my mom In her own way Smiling and telling me son This woman you love Is one to cherish Hold on to her Be her love Do it with all of your might My dad would sit with his pipe He had a twinkle most times I see him make you, my love His favorite of all times He would laugh and tell you stories Stories with a twinkle in his eye And he would tell me truthfully Son, make her proud So now I pledge to always be there for you To love you for all time, care and cherish you greatly My parents, I know would want me to They would love you dear, as do I Written January 28th, 2002 © on Jan 28 2002 10:40 AM PST, John 0 • 8
