Please take off my shoes : Family Poetry

written by Poet : Jeff Pelsang


Tomorrow I may die,

I may not ever wake,

All the memories may disappear,

like rain drops falling into the lake,

My life has been a wonderous ride,

Twists and many turns along the way,

Friends, many good friends who added to my life,

If there was a choice certainly I would stay,

When that moment in time comes we all must go,

Called to from far beyond,

But keep me in your hearts so I might feel you when Im gone,

Theres things I think of, like my children Ill miss,

Blessed little angels, oh god Ive been blessed,

Just to see them grow and hold them in my arms,

Having them near and protecting them from harm,

How lucky we all are to feel the love thats inside,

Giving more then we take,

On lifes roller coaster ride,

So when you see me laid out in a box,

Take off my shoes please,

Im more compfortable in just socks,
