From so high in the sky
This poem is a lullaby
It's alright, you'll be fine
Daddy'll always be near by...
Pretty Shari study hard,
please know that your mind goes too far,
Live your life I know you'll do,
Let the small ones be like you...
Lil'Craig you know you're my man,
keep on trying as hard as you can,
Now you are the man of the house
And I'll help you figure things out...
Chyla my piggy, please don't cry,
Keep in mind I am near by,
You're my angel, always will be,
Try to smile very brightly for me...
Little Connar, my little Bubba,
I'll miss our games but I'm not too far,
Play with friends and don't cry for me,
I want you to be as happy as can be...
Baby Erica, you don't know me well,
but I'm sure you'll be such a mademoisselle,
When you grow up read this piece,
And then somebody might tell you 'bout me...
My dear children please take care,
I know you've got a lot to bear,
Please keep dreaming and follow your heart,
And you'll find out nothing keeps us apart...
