Remembering my Dad, 1914-1989, who gave me the best to make me what I am, today. God Bless him!
when the lights dimmed
around me and enveloped the
air into a darkness, that was so still
and cold and hungry in the twilight of
my life that moves silently along through
days and nights of work and sleep, like a train
trudging through the hills and dales of a lifetime
filled with so many wonderful thoughts and memories
that we shared together amidst ups and downs that came along
and kept us alive in this revolving globe that rolls along until eternity.

Dad
You were therewhen the lights dimmed
around me and enveloped the
air into a darkness, that was so still
and cold and hungry in the twilight of
my life that moves silently along through
days and nights of work and sleep, like a train
trudging through the hills and dales of a lifetime
filled with so many wonderful thoughts and memories
that we shared together amidst ups and downs that came along
and kept us alive in this revolving globe that rolls along until eternity.
