“Blue Birds Fly”
14 years
still recall
you standing there
on the eve of a New Year
grinning like a Cheshire cat
ready to pounce
emerald eyes flashing
and I was a goner
we grew up together
you and I
growing still
not done with dreams
the world for her
and all its wonder
rain and thunder
let us stand
not too near
for it was Grace
that brought her here
and it is Grace
that will see her through
the dark goodnight
that ray of light
dust of days
bye blue bird bye
daddy and I
we’re here
just
not too near
Faith without fear
love you,
my dear
