Pictures fade,
though you try to hold onto and protect them.
Yet, the impressions etched upon your heart and soul last forever-ever deepening then.
Sail away and leave me where I'm meant to be,
Holding loosely to flesh and blood, those things unable to enter eternity.
Turn my eyes, and melt my heart
not to things lost, but all gained.
May I stand fully in the present, as I'm meant to be...
My gaze ever fixed on the sails of Heaven
just beyond this sea.
Debra Louise- to daddy 12-8-11
