I really enjoyed this poem. A couple years ago my friend Shayne's dad died of cancer. Now just this year in September he died in a car accident. He was 16 years old and one of the best people to ever walk! I want him to know that. And the poem was great! R. I. P SHAYNER I LoVE YOU

In Shane's Eyes |
| by S. Gulbin |
|
Someday soon, my Dear Shane, when you look into the starry skies a twinkle will beckon you; Yes, that is your father. And someday when I look into your eyes so blue, and touch your hair of gold, I too will see your father. For as long as we live, he will never leave us, You with your star and me with the face of your father to see everyday. Yes, Shane, Daddy is a Star. |

That was simple beautiful, it made me cry, i can relate, not becasue a father or anything has died, but my auntie died and my cousin who is 5 now, 3 at the time didnt understand, so my uncle always told him my auntie had gone to be a star, and that she was always watching over him. )

This poem was very painful. My son is a precious 3 years old and we lost his father on November 19, 2003, and we have told my son that his father is a star and to be happy whenever he sees one. Thank you for putting my feelings into words.
