Life's Little Treasures



Love can hold such lovely things
each one's a master piece,
like the presence of my dad
our memories will never cease.

Daddy's joy and laughter
it's flowing every where,
for all the goodness he has done
he always had time to spare.

We enjoyed every moment
just having him by our side,
he was always very active
always on the ride.

God gave me all the joys in life
wouldn't change a thing,
never had any regrets
was very proud of everything.

So I've had my ups and downs
I loved every moment here with you,
now it's time for me to go
please don't be sad and blue.

My life here on earth
with my family and friends,
was as pleasant as can be,
where I stood till the end.

now I'm gone to a better place
with God I will forever stay,
do all your deeds right
and I'll meet you here someday.
