Whisper in the Wind

Dear Uncle Don,

A lot has changed since you been gone

I am a grown lady now

Made it through, some how

Yes, Mom she still believes him, over me

But, the truth is something only you and I can see

I graduated in two thousand eight

With a bright future to create

Thank you for supporting me

For enabling me to see

Though you are gone, you are in my heart

Your presence, stops me from falling apart

So many memories, of you an I

Now, with the angels,is where you fly

I think of your smile or your corny jokes

I have not even, gone back home to visit the folks

When I cry, alone in my blues

For your presence, you always leave me clues

A whisper in the wind

Forgiving me. when I have sinned

The leaf, falling during the Fall

The lap of the waves on the ocean shore

The one waiting to open the door

With Papa, and Nanny at your side, like it was before

Thank you Uncle Don, for all you have done

You are the brilliance, in the rising sun

To start a brand new day

You will continue to be, the glistening star showing me the way

Through, the darkness of the night

To whisper in the wind, everything will be al right
