If I Could Travel To and Fro

To my Dad... If I could travel to and fro The winds of change would meekly blow And Heaven's Gate, that opened wide Would stay shut tight, Dad at my side Our campfires, when the firelight danced You'd find me safe, wrapped in your glance Upon this path, which trail to take Close by my side, clear choice you'd make And when the future seems forlorn You'll summon Angels, squash the storm Missteps, success, I know your here Your steady hand "jamesy!" your cheer! On down the road, around the bend I know your there! Dear Dad, My friend! 09/20/13 © All Rights Reserved
