This gem has to.go into my favourites of favourites. ...I love it from beginning to end..You lived life to the full so it seems..but ahh those dreams keep lingering without leave.Its beautiful to dream Frank..In dreams all is possible...The last part of the poem has a sweet sour ending..but im sure you ll be peeping from beneath your white wings from above and look over your kids from up there : ). I love your style Frank..keep posting.
