Remembering Dad

Eleven years without you
Allot we have been through
You were our cornerstone
But you left us all alone
It was a time of devastation
I was left with obligations
But I do it in honor of you
The way you taught me to
I saw your own generosity
You always gave cheerfully
You'd give away your last
You always gave the best
My desire is to be like you
With a heart of humility
And all I ever wanna see
Is that your wishes come true
I wanna finish all you started
I'd do everything wholehearted
And never live with any regret
So your legacy I'll protect
Paul Jacobus Eksteen
