IN THE SKY
A little girl
with tear filled eyes
prays it isn’t true,
wishes it wasn’t happening,
knows it’s all so real.
She learns as she grows
holding onto that last day,
she hears herself say
“Daddy don’t die!”
She hears his reply,
“I’ll be alright.”
Days and months
turn into twenty years,
longing and sadness
replace the tears
as her son proudly says
“Grand-dad lives in the sky!”
