Words To the Heirs

To my darling Alexia Lynn Please remember where you’ve been And I hope someday to finally see The world has become part of your fantasy And to your older brother ken You too must remember where you’ve been Keep in your pocket the coin with two sides Given to you, when your father died My two little heirs, with no real ends Filled with hope and plenty of friends Always bickering and laughing still Taught to walk and trudge up hills Party on but get some rest For tomorrow brings a whole new test. For I believe just as you That some of our wishes will come true The ones that don’t will keep us aware Theirs a reason god made stairs Al tho repetition may not win life's game does needs a place to begin and remember you two the younger heirs the ones who trip while on the stairs they may slip or even pee but they are here so leave them be for if i die and leave all nill be thanful that you new them still for orphans your not and will never be unless you want my history its not that bad untill you grow old then the world your in becomes bitterly cold so do not fear my troubled heirs you have a lineage full of wares for your grandpa Robert A left some coins which you can play finding them will give you thrills keeping them will take skill
