To honor you, I get up everyday and take a breath. And start another day without you in it. To honor you, I laugh and love with those who knew your smile And the way your eyes twinkled with mischief and secret knowledge. To honor you, I take the time to appreciate everyone I love, I know now there is no guarantee of days or hours spent in their presence. To honor you, I listen to music you would have liked, And sing at the top of my lungs, with the windows rolled down. To honor you, I take chances, say what I feel, hold nothing back, Risk making a fool of myself, dance every dance. You were my light, my heart, my gift of love, from the very highest source. So everyday, I vow to make a difference, share a smile, live, laugh and love. Now I live for us both, so all I do, I do to honor you.
