''I've Done My Work''
I've done my work, I've sung my song. I've done some good, I've done some wrong;
And I shall go where I belong, The Lord has willed it so.
He knows my heart, and every thought He knows what pain and joy I've brought;
And by His love I shall be taught The way to Him I know.
He guides my steps, and He knows best. He will not harm where He has blessed.
And so goodnight, I'll take my rest, Where joy and peace will never end.

GrandPa
You always told me to follow my dreams Grow up, and be something Don't settle for less,
Don't be scared, everything will be alright, Just pray to the Lord
On dark and gray nights!
The only male figure in my life, You taught me wrong from right Anything I wanted you broke your back to
do it Even tho' you were sick and hurt,
You did it!
You were always there even when I said That I think my mother doesn'tJove me You would always put your arm around me
and say If she didn't love you She wouldn't have birthed you!
I know I caught tempers and said some stuff But I couldn't say I love you enough! One and only Isaac White, my June Bug the III I love you like a father But now it's ashes to ashes Dust to dust
I wrote this poem in memory of us!
