"Life has no limitations except the ones your make."
I lost my father suddenly with no goodbye
Oh, all of my life he had been my rock
I looked down at him and of course I wept why, why
Now, part of me is chained with a brass lock
Father had many quotes that made my young soul fly
He said life is about each building block
On nature hikes I first saw beauty through his eye
I will miss always our long walks and talk
Now, I glide in a blue sky drifting up high, high
I dip, float and soar like an orphaned hawk
And at his cold tomb I sing him a lullaby
Rest in peace . . . "as life is a clicking clock"
