MEMORIAL

TO

MICHAEL

MY CHILD...

COME...

LISTEN...

DEAR CHILD COME LISTEN TO ME

FOR I SHALL LIE TO YOU NOT.

YOUR LIFE HAS BECOME PAINFUL AND

THERE IS MUCH YOU HAVE FORGOT.

YOU HAVE ONLY LOST YOUR WAY...

GOTTEN OFF THE BEATEN PATH.

AND NEED ONLY A SMALL REMINDER

OF THE POTENTIAL YOU HAVE.

JUST A CHILD WHEN YOU LEFT HOME...

LEAVING BEHIND THINGS TAUGHT,

AND, WHILE ANSWERING TO JUST THE

SELF,  SOME VALUES WERE SIMPLY LOST.

LIFE IS PASSING YOU BY AND, AS YET,

THERE IS MUCH YOU HAVE TO LEARN.

ABOUT THE LESSONS IN  IT'S LIVING AND

FOR MUCH YOU SHOULD BE CONCERNED.
