ONLY HIS MOTHER KNOWS (To Our Son Frank) It matters not to her that he was A husband and father all in one. She loved him 'cause he was still Her son. Families grow and drift apart. And things like this break, a mother's heart. Years pass swiftly, and roll on and on And in one brief. moment our son was gone. Only she knows the tears that are shed, And the lonely years to come ahead. She works and prays in untrained grief, 'Cause work, however clumsy, brings relief. It isn't just death makes a body sad, It's not to have done what you wish you had. She has known him since birth And knows only too well what hciT0 Jd Friends.. ... Old and was worth.

When only seven, he had the fishing lust, He fished, not with worms. But with old bread crusts. His first wild goose with it's head over His shoulder and feet dragging on the ground, A more likely hunter couldn't be found. His face beaming with pride, He was a sight to see. It's times like these that stay In a mother's memory. He loved the lakes and streams For the fish they grew, And God's big blue sky Where the wild geese flew.
