His gentle soul, I instantly found,
with one look in his eyes.
They preciously tell me,
what the world looks like to him.
Making it easy to comprehend
exactly what he sees.
As a youth, he was no angel.
The loss of his father, obligated
him to support the family that was
left behind, since he had suddenly
become the man of the house.
Becoming an adult before the fitting
time, due to the unexpected
responsibilities past on to him .
Later he gave up a secure life,
fleeing the one place he called home,
without a dime to his name.
Parting from his family and friends,
to give us an opportunity for a life full
of nothing but gain. He worked night
and day to provide a better
future for his kids...
Not once did he complain or even think
to quit. His courage gets us through the
years, making this man, I've lived with
my entire life, a man who I see as a saint.
