Batman aka Dear Son
Jan 28th
Over the last week Batman has moved into our house, you should know Batman has assumed a new alias: Dear Son. Every morning he wakes up and asks,
“Can I put on my Batman costume?”
Depending on if he has to go to school of not, the answer is usually:
“Yes.”
Batman, aka Dear Son, now watches TV with us, eats dinner with us, walks the dogs with us and most wonderfully before we walk into any room – checks for Bad Guys. Should they exist he is sure to clear out the room and make it safe. I am glad to have Batman on my side.
Dear Brother
Jan 16th
Oh Brother
Oh Brother I can believe its true
Four years ago life was changed forever
Our lives kept moving,
But yours suddently stopped on Earth.
I know you watch from up above
Your little boy knows Heaven in not far
He loves to glance up at the midnight sky
And say “my daddy is up their with God by his side”…
This weekend he had the powers of a superhero
We were all so proud
Fighting the villains, the bad guys and our tears from inside
I’m sure you were watching, did you see his smile?
I love you and miss you this will always be true
A bittersweet weekend one of joyous life, yet blues
Never forgetting the bond we shared
Thank you for the gift of your son you have shared.
Angels on the Moon
Jan 14th
Do you dream, that the world will know your name?
So tell me your name
And do you care, about all the little things or anything at all?
I wanna feel, all the chemicals inside I wanna feel
I wanna sunburn, just to know that I’m alive
To know I’m alive
So tell me your name
And do you care, about all the little things or anything at all?
I wanna feel, all the chemicals inside I wanna feel
I wanna sunburn, just to know that I’m alive
To know I’m alive
Don’t tell me if I’m dying, ’cause I don’t wanna know
If I can’t see the sun, maybe I should go
Don’t wake me ’cause I’m dreaming, of angels on the moon
Where everyone you know, never leaves too soon
Do you believe, in the day that you were born?
Tell me, do you believe?
And do you know, that everyday’s the first of the rest of your life?
Don’t tell me if I’m dying, ’cause I don’t wanna know
If I can’t see the sun, maybe I should go
Don’t wake me ’cause I’m dreaming, of angels on the moon
Where everyone you know, never leaves too soon
This is to one last day in the shadows
And to know a brother’s love
This is to New York City angels
And the rivers of our blood
This is to all of us, to all of us
So don’t tell me if I’m dying, ’cause I don’t wanna know
If I can’t see the sun, maybe I should go
Don’t wake me cause I’m dreaming, of angels on the moon
Where everyone you know, never leaves too soon
Yeah, you can tell me all your thoughts
About the stars that fill polluted skies
And show me where you run to
When no one’s left to take your side
But don’t tell me where the road ends
‘Cause I just don’t wanna know,
No I don’t wanna know
Don’t tell me if I’m dying
Don’t tell me if I’m dying
Don’t tell me if I’m dying
what if
Jan 7th
…you knew 9 days from now you would die?
You would take your last breath, see your last sunrise and sunset, taste your last sip of coffee, glance at your last tree, observe your last leaf blowing in the wind, feel your last hug on earth, give your loved one a last kiss…
…what would you do different?
