ORPHANS

An angel came into my life that day
you were the angel who would say
I will always be here for you
and all the other children too.
We were all adopted by you
I was just one of quite a few
you did everything to make us happy
you were strict but fair
we were educated and then at age
settled in a career with a good wage
You would go anywhere in the world
to see any of us get married
you were a good father to us all
we will never forget you
or all the things you did for us too
god has taken you away now
but we will never forget
everything you taught us



dedicated to a man who helped run an orphanage
