I'Ll Be

If I should leave this world below And I'm no longer by your side Here's some things you need to know To remember, though I've died I am with you during the day In the sun that warms your face I'll be the wind that blows your way And causes your heart to race I'll be the smile as you walk by That stranger on the street I'll be the sparkle in the eye Of everyone you meet I'll be the rain when times are bad And the sleeves that wipe your tears I'll be the prayer when you are sad That drives away your fears I'll be the whisper upon your skin That causes you to blush I'll be the courage you carry within That gives your heart that rush I'll be the kiss when you're asleep That warms your silent dreams I'll be the promise I swore to keep No matter how hard it seems I'll be the picture, your mind will hold When your memory starts to fade I'll be your blanket in the harshest cold The warmth your love has made I'll be the quiet that forms the sound Whenever you think of me Whatever you've lost, I'll be your found That's what I will be

Nice writing Larry. You have good descriptiveness and rhyming in each verse. Just correct one little spelling error located in the second line of your fourth verse: if you are referring to the arm coverings on pieces of clothing, the correct spelling is "sleeves".
