As I climb this steep hill...
I remember the time you held my hand
I remember the time you wiped my tears
I remember the time you carried me on your shoulders.
I Finally made it to the top of this hill...
What a view to behold
I see your beloved willow tree but
I don’t see you.
All I see is a big grey stone...
The wind is blowing in my ear
I hear your voice
It’s calling me.
It’s telling me you’re okay...
Everything is just fine
Oh how I miss you my love
R.I.P. my beloved DAD!

Laura - I just found this one..... sitting waiting for a snowstorm today with not much to do.......... and it's beautiful. Odd too because my Dad had planted a willow tree at one of the homes we lived in when I was young...... it's still there a full grown and older tree now! Maybe we are ancestorily related!
I think you are! And both Awesomely amazing!
There you go, Lorna!
Maybe we are!! 😊
Thank you for your
visit and commenting!
I hope the snowstorm
won’t be too harsh for
you! Take good care!
