about

composed for my father-in-law, Gerald Casteel, as he neared his passing

lyrics

LAST DANCE

our time is not done when heartbeat --- slips away
one’s journey ripples long, found
resonant from truths lived ---
our actions echo more, than words or faith

a father marks deep, leaving us not alone
we leap with his cry now
--- reaching out --- touching will --- resounding still ---

~ ph lyric
