A father standing thoughtfully,
his heart gazing at an empty shell...
as all that once was to him, his everything -
rushes past his mind like a gentle breeze
touching his soul in the silence...
unfolding the memories.
I love and I remember you, Papa Frank -
always to always.
The hurt you must feel -
standing there, leaning as if
'tis all too heavy...
Gazing deep inside
hoping to reach back in time
and embrace each one.
I glimpse at thy love
in thy lovable Anne (Ah-neh)
and I know... at least.
Oh dear Papa Frank,
soldier brave and father true,
hear me: I thank you.
I pray, come that day -
no hate can take love away
forever... to stay.
God love you
and keep you...
