Ode

Grateful for the lessons taught
The memories not forgot
And the Shadow for which I walk

Larger than this life
Yet not without the plight
Behind His eye’s blue light

I will never forget
The respect I have
And the love I felt

Human in His ways
Blessed as I am
To have had those days

Moments that won’t pass
The admiration of the past
With my love will always last.

I love you.
