One More Thing
By Jamaica Rose Slicer

If I could say just one more thing,
I'd tell you all you0ve done
How one soft touch of your strong hand
Grasps everything and everyone.

If I could say just one more thing,
I'd tell you that I care
For you have always cared for me,
No matter what; no matter where.

If I could say just one more thing,
I'd tell you that you're brave
You'll never know the lives you've touched,
All you've done, and all you gave.
If I could say just one more thing,
I would tell you how,
Everyone is loving you,
And breathing for you know.
