A Dedication: Draper Family

Fifty six years of woodworking our crafts of life together There were sacrifices and triumphs Three little dreams ago our life became complete Then the sands of time emptied for you Now I sit and ponder my decisions Scared they were wrong; lost in grief for you. Some days are harder then others My surroundings remind me of how much I miss you Can't get distracted, won't stay busy, thoughts cascade across my tears. A love so pure A heart so hurt I know he is going to take care of you As you take care of us from the lights of heaven. I love you always and forever seventy-five years to the day my sweet angel of the sky. For Mother and Wife.
