Ronald Reagans Wish
America is crying now,
I hope its not for me.
Ive gone home to be with the Lord,
Its where I want to be.
He called me for my job is done,
Now I will take a rest.
The work was hard and took some time,
I know I did my best.
I hope these tears I see are joy,
Not sorrow or remorse.
My life was full, I lived it well,
The journey takes its course.
The best years are ahead of you,
So dwell not on the past.
Your work will keep the beacon strong,
A beacon that will last.
Please trust the Lord to guide your hand,
He led me all the way.
Gods Blessings for America,
Create a better day.
Ill see you all some sunny morn,
There on that distant shore.
Our Shining City on a Hill,
Please weep for me no more.

NEVER FORGET
From beginning to end...
this has been...
the most unforgettable...
of weeks...
that even America's Children...
appreciate.
The future ahead is glowing...
because now many will ask...
.."Just what would RONNIE do?"..
when ever they come up against...
a Wall.
RONNIE gave all so that we would have it all...
...and that's OURSELVES.

He always reminded us that we were limited only by our vision and our desire to work hard.
Pretty simple thought, but one that many forget.
Some want others to provide for their needs while others want only to be allowed to provide for themselves. Reagan, you, and I are of the second group.

Thank you for the ping.
That is a beautiful poem. Our beloved President Reagan would prefer that we celebrate his life, rather than cry over his death.

"Some want others to provide for their needs while others want only to be allowed to provide for themselves. Reagan, you, and I are of the second group." Minor correction needed:
Some want others to provide for their needs while others want only to be allowed to provide for themselves and the ones they love. Reagan, you, and I are of the second group.
And Reagan's heart was big enongh to have love, and prayers, for everyone, including John Hinckley, the man who shot him.

His race has been run. Well done, CG.
To: Conspiracy Guy; ThreePuttinDude
Okay, I've started up again too! What a beautiful poem, CG.
I honestly believe that he will continue to be a champion for America and for democracy and freedom, from the "other side."
I miss him. :(

I was always a conservative, which often was a lonely thing. But he helped me see that I was not alone. He spoke what I thought, which helped me speak it too. In that sense, through you and me he will continue!

I felt that too! I cannot believe that there is a graphic of the same thought. One cannot help to see Mrs. Reagan stand and wave in that manner without remembering her beloved husband standing at her side. Thanks for posting.
Did you create this beautiful graphic?

Did you create this beautiful graphic?Thank you for such a wonderful compliment. Yes, I did creat that graphic, and a few others that seemed to just flow from the picutures to my hands. I am glad you got as much enjoyment out of it as much as I did.
