Life Lessons
life lessons
i hope that when you are looking down from heaven that i have made you proud
i am finally beginning to understand what life is truly about
all of those lessons that you disguised as chores are catching up to me
you knew all along that one day i would see
“think things through” “clean as you go” “make sure you have a spare”
i wish i would have thanked you for showing me that you cared
i was always so amazed by the way you carried your pride
you always kept your word; you always did what’s right
someday i hope i am able to hold a candle next to you
and i hope i am able to teach my children these life lessons too
dedicated to my great grandma bertha lane
