The Guardians
You came and faded in the rising sun like snow
But left my heart a glow
Your smile was ever golden and pure
Like the heart of your nurture
You shed tears so my hopes and dreams will show
Even though the wheel of fate was slow
You poured your sweat and blood on loam
So this young soul would not roam
I wish you stayed longer to see me grow
But deep in my heart I know
One day I shall feel those loving arms again freely
May it be for eternity
For your memory never failed to guide my dream
Though I see you no more
I feel your hope like a stream
Like surging waves on the shore
In memory of my grandparents Vicente and Antonina
