For Kathie....
Since the day that you passed over
I have wondered many things
Can you see me, do you know of
Things I do while living?
My oldest daughter looks just like you
When she smiles I see your face
Her dark hair flows round her shoulders
Like your picture in this frame
People say I sing just like you
When I sing they hear your voice
Are you with me as I’m singing?
Gently flowing in these chords?
Sometimes I swear I can feel you
Somewhere nearby watching me
Do you know that I still love you?
Love you and miss you so deeply
On that day that I cross over
Will my questioning subside?
Will I see you, will I hold you?
Stare into your sweet brown eyes?
