For Parents of Captain Khan
For Parents of Captain Khan
(Thought about Wrath of Khan
when I was writing this.)
Saw many magnificent flowers out front
Which were exactly what we will want
With several tall trees along each side
Next to nice house that in do abide.
Each day great wife cooks a fine meal
I love and to me always does appeal
Make things green shall have to water
Say prayer to God who is my comforter.
Thank you for things that now are mine
And sun and moon which daily shine
Stray stars coming out brightly at night
Delightful day when things were alright.
What else from marvelous God must I ask?
Necessary needed to complete each task
God's love overcoming all my loneliness
Over death of our son who we often miss.
Our son such a perfect example has set
Everyone loved him each time they met
Truly brave soldier and man of all men
Soon we shall see him in heaven again.
