Happy 30th Birthday Son!

I am Here (read on July 3)

I am Here

Weep not for me now that I have passed.

Instead, smile at the memories of our laughter and joy.

Cherish the happy times we spent together.

Hold fast to the love that we shared.

For I am not really gone.

I am closer than ever before.

As the morning sun rises

and throughout the busy day...I am with you.

Until the setting sun disappears on the horizon

and the day turns into night...I am here.

You may feel a faint breeze stir when you sleep

as I gently kiss your forehead, "Good night."

I am the wind in the trees

and the song of a bird.

I am moonbeams in a midnight sky

and a glorious rainbow after the storm.

I am a smile on a stranger's face,

a gentle touch,

a warm embrace.

Listen to the wind for my message of love.

Look to the sky for my smiling face.

Feel my essence encircle you with warm memories.

Open your heart to know...I am not gone.

Reach deep into your soul...You will find me.

I am here

Have no fear

I am with you

Always,

Derrick
