Cowboy hats with Halos
Once upon a time, when I was nearly nine, the Sun could really shine if you didn't know it still had its yellow glow. A third Ray was sent to spend some time amongst us all.
Now that the time has come to send that sun beam back to the Heavens our heart becomes too heavy it's rough to try to mend, who even knows where to begin. As he smiled, through his hands up in the air, so the universe could see it too. On that day, he flew away, a smile still on his face. If you don't have one to give I will bring mine to give back to you all. His heart was never small the weight of the world on his shoulders. He would pass his smile along like a good old country song giving it away as he skipped away . Pulling another smile from his pocket hoping to pass it along. The smile in my heart belongs to him.He gave to me before I was even ten. Can't wait to see him again when I hear the trumpet call. Stand up and show the world the smile he gave to you to.
We will see him again. Until then hold on to every memory like a dusty cowboy hat. Let him pat you on the back.He has heavenly deeds to do each of you know when he has time in between he will fly down with pure white wings.
Daniel has alot of stops to make he won't forget a single place on his way back home. Maybe I should also state there was never too much on his plate he woulda dropped it at a single call.
He wasn't overwhelmed at all. Remember what said he said remember what he did as he
Hands you a smile on the way out once again.
Being away doesn't mean he's gone.
He would never judge another my smallest baby brother for everyone he knew. This goes out to you if you didn't know him well it didn't matter he goes where goes with a smile on his face and can not be replaced.
Put his smile in your pocket or keep it in a locket but please just let it shine for it was just his time if there's a gap to fill just remember who he was still.
The sun is now bright white like Daniel's certain light.
