                                                       Dad you were the beat to my heart.

                                                          The right hand to my left hand.

                                                     The calm to my Storm, The Pod to my Peas.

                                                            The strength to my weakness.

                                                              The security to my Blanket.

                                                                  The moon to my stars.

                                                   And now you will be the bright light to my dark Sky.
