Another chapter
Another day
As I keep record
Of what I want to say

There's poems
I've written
Photographs too
Of each memory I've treasured
Of me and you

There's loving advice
On every page
From the start of your life
Through to each new stage

I've looked well ahead
It's all in hand
Took great measures
In all that I planned

Can't leave it to chance
As I really don't know
If I will still be around
To watch you grow

So I made a promise
And started to write
And my heavy load
All at once
Became light

It's my loving duty
The least I can do
To remind you of us
Our love
Me and you

I'm hoping you'll
Treasure each page that you see
As much as I've valued
Your time spent
With me

The book i have written
Is carefully tied
With a pink satin ribbon
Damp from tears that I've cried

I hope you won't need it
That I will still be here
To lovingly guide you
And banish all fear
If fate intervenes

And shows we must part
"Remember "
"Each memories left"
Footprints in my heart. ! ..........
