Country Roads

He drove country roads
with a big wide smile -
in a pick up truck
for mile after mile...

with his loving wife
right by his side -
they always enjoyed
a nice country drive...

He lived his life
as a Godly man -
as a loving husband
and a football fan...

He always had a joke
and a silly grin -
he was a happy dad
and a faithful friend...

He strummed guitar
to John Denver songs -
while those around
would laugh and sing along...

He wore a cowboy hat
with jeans and boots -
he knew how to survive
he knew how to shoot...

He loved his mom
and the Lord above -
he was an example
of strength and love..

Though it is hard
and broke hearts into -
there was nothing left
anyone could do...

wanting to go home
was his dying wish -
so we bid farewell
to his heavenly bliss.

Until we meet again...
