If I had to do it again....

If I only had five minutes more
The things I would have shared
The thank you's I would have said
I never got to tell you how much you meant to me
Or that you were the best father-in-law,
Better than any man could be.
The last time I talked to you
I wish I would have know
I would have said I love you
And held your hand alone.

If I only had five minutes,
I would give you one last hug
I would not complain of cooking you a well done steak
Or frying you a piece of chicken
I would tell you we won't like living without you
And tell you that I will miss you
More than you would ever know.
I would pick you up and take you to where ever
you would like to go.

Before we knew it
You were standing at heavens door,
Now God has called you
To drink pepsi at the Pearly Gates.
It is time to get your wings
To leave this world of pain behind
And all of heavens angels are singing
Because you have arrived.

I have had two angels fall in my lap
That would make me laugh when I was down
To fix my heart and made me smile
You have wiped my tears with your gentle hand
I knew that no one would ever understand
But you said it would all be ok.
You showed the love that never dies
Yet you have gone ahead.

I know will see you again
So be waiting for me to come
Just be patient, my friend,
The best is yet to come.

We love you, Poppy....

I can't really express my words for this wonderful man that left a legacy longer than I could ever express.  I am so grateful to be part of his family...
