Hold Up the Sky

I knew he was there to hold up the sky. I always saw him hold up the sky. It was his duty to hold up the sky. For me he would always hold up the sky. It was a pleasure for him to hold up the sky For those who could not hold up the sky. He never complained when he had to hold up the sky. For any amount of time he would hold up the sky. Now he is not here to hold up the sky. I will no longer see him hold up the sky. Now it is my turn to hold up the sky. For someone else I will hold up the sky. Dad it was you who would hold up the sky. I know it was not easy to hold up the sky. You always found a way to hold up the sky. Thank you for teaching me how to hold up the sky.
