Aged 2 in 1974

Derek, My Son

Did I tell you enough times how I loved you?

Everything about you makes me smile.

Right now my words might seem too few,

Except I think a thought for every mile

Keeping me away from touching you.

Think of me when you’re feeling lonely:

Hold me in your heart when you feel sad;

Often dwell on happy times with me,

Reading learning books that you had.

Please keep in mind my voice from days gone past:

Evermore our friendship, love will last.

David Stewart Miller
