Journey To the Skies
Start the propellers rolling,
Feel the aircraft engine rumbling,
Tension, fear arising,
In the soul.
Up, up and away,
To the stars shining so brightly,
To the heavens,
Emanating such beauty,
Up up and away.
Over flowing affection,
Warmth and love,
The pillar of a family,
A rock, a dove,
Fly up, up and away,
On your journey to the sky,
To the heavens.
A joke, a laugh,
All good cheer,
Not a moment to be dull
In this life my dear.
A sea of knowledge,
Unending it seemed,
Deep seated respect,
To so many esteemed.
A smile, a hand,
Gentle but firm,
How are you sir?
Fine fettle I tell you,
Whatever the weather,
Whatever the chore.
Honesty always the best,
To be upright , never rest!
I’ll say it how it is my darling,
And if they don’t like it,
I’ll not stand for their snivelling!
So cast your mind afore,
And remember what he was before,
Warmth from the bottom of the heart,
And he always knew how to laugh,
Right from the very start.
So start the propellers rolling,
Feel the engine rumbling,
Up, up and away,
To the stars,
To the heavens,
Up, up and away.
