Is Goodbye ... Really Goodbye








IS GOODBYE ... REALLY GOODBYE



Oh ... My Son
How am I to bare turning around
To place you in the arms
Of your Mommy

How am I to look her in
The eyes knowing that goodbye
Waits only moments away

This could be the very
Last time I will hold you
To feel you heart beat next to mine

Daddy should not be thinking
Such thoughts but no man
Could pry you away from
My arms at this moment



Remember one thing Son
Just in case ...

I love you and your Mommy
With all my heart

It is for you and our future world
That I take these steps
Leading me away from all that
We as a family have known
Our lives to be



Our only certainty being ...

The uncertainty of what
Is to be tomorrow
If I do not do my part today



I am sure that the great
"I Am"
Will watch over all of us

Don't forget to talk with him
Each night before you go to sleep

I know Daddy and He will be talking alot



Within the passing of time
We as a family
Will continue our journey into
Our lives knowing that our
World is a safer place because
There are those of us that paid
and continue to pay
The sacrifice to make it so

I will come home to you Son
The Daddy you remember
I promise you



Lord please help me to keep
The promise I just made



You be a good boy
And remember always
That Daddy loves you

If one day you realize
You haven't seen "Ole Dad"
Around in awhile
I leave you these thoughts
Upon this poet's page



No Daddy will not be home
In a little while

Not this time Son

Why am I wearing this funny suit

Son I wear this uniform
In honor and pride
You may one day do the same

Oh Lord
He doesn't understand
Any of this!



Your Mommy, is one
Terrific Mommy

She will take care of you
And hug you for both of us
While I am gone from you

My love I will send you both
With the rising of each new
Morning's light

Upon the wings of memory and hope
My love will find its
Way to you when you least
Expect that little tug on your heart

As darkness falls
I will say yet another prayer
For all of us

Marking off one more day gone
And one less day
To be away from you

Remember ...

We share the same sky
We breath the same air
We live beyond the distance
We love beyond forever



I HAVE TO DO THIS SON
... i have to do this



Well Champ
Its time to turn the page
Into our next chapter

I love you

Oh Dear Lord
Help me to do this!

1 ... 2 ... 3 ...



Here you go Mommy
Take care of our little man

Oh darling please don't cry
Everything will be okay
We will make it through this
I promise

Have I ever lied to you



Daddy is being called
A great big hug and my love
To stay with you a lifetime



Yes Sir!
I'm coming Sir!



Please Sweetheart,
You HAVE to let me go

I love you
I love you both so much .......
