Don'T Worry Son

Oh how sweet thy aging face
That I see fading into grace
I still recall your loves embrace
As soft as silk and wrapped in lace

Your voice still echos in my ears
Wiping out my deepest fears
Sometimes bringing me to tears
This I'll carry through the years

You brought me up through childhood
Teaching me that life is good
Helping me when ever you could
Like leading me through darkened wood

Even when I'd go to play
And sometimes life would go astray
Everytime I'd call, you'd say...

"Don't worry son"...

And it would all just go away

Oh how sweet thy aging face
That I see fading into grace
No-one in this human race
Could ever take your place

Rockman


Thanks Mom. I miss you.
