Charles Erickson

To my children,

As I leave you my children

Remember me how I was, not how I have been

When you are down I will be there

Whispering words of comfort in your ear

For I am not leaving you

I will be everywhere, protecting you

A soft touch, a breeze, a memory

To let you know that I still see

Dad,

I can only imagine what will be

In your eyes , heavens awe and beauty

Looking down upon your family

Whose angels have now become three

Rise up upon eagles wings and soar

As you have never done before

To see and celebrate your life

As you now reunite with your wife
