RIP Grandfather


I feel you watching me,
I feel your love wrap around me,
I know you see, hear and feel my love for you.
You walk with me, talk through me, and expand my heart.
You had me at the first smile,
Your voice, your laughter, your twinkling eyes beckon me still.
I love you,
I know you love me,
Your place in my heart is cast.
Always, forever.
Always, until we meet again.
RIP Vernon E. Richardson
