A Letter To My Children

Tiny hands that reached out for me To share the touch of the mystery Shining eyes that wonder what will be

So begins a love Like you have never known A love for another life So strong that you would Give your own You do your best And hope that you have shown them

You're my heroes You're what matters All the days of my life You're my heroes My ever after You bring me joy, bring the light

Now you're young men And women of the world Fly the winds of kindness Let your wings unfurl I wish you peace And that sad times turn to pearls

And if I go away Please remember every day That I'll be there To help you find your way back home

And when I go away Please remember every day All the ways you make me proud to say
