Written for all the heroes who have touched my life.

Heroes don’t come around that often,
but when they do we know,
how much they will mean to us,
with all the things they do.

They come to us in many forms,
but in your heart its clear,
they made an impression on your life,
and forever you will hold them dear.

I have a few myself you know,
with one being my big bro,
he helped me though so many things,
and also has helped me grow.

My mother who has left this world,
to be in heaven up above,
was always there to help me too,
just like on hand a glove.

My children also are on my list,
because of what they do,
One became a mommy too,
the other had a different view.

The youngest child is also there,
the Navy he did go,
off to war for all of us,
into a wonderful man you know.

My sisters are both in mind,
for who they have become,
one a successful wife and mom,
the other through medicine she has succumb.

This list of mine could go on and on,
but one more I will say,
my partner who has taught me well,
about cultures and the world in which we pray.

My dad he also taught me too,
about God and heaven above,
The angels and the devil close,
God he is all of love.

Thank you all for being there,
and helping me to see,
the importance you have made me, me,
Without you all I would not be.
