A Letter to Heaven

James Winston Echard 1972 (Orange county California)



Seven years gone and passed the time has gone by so very fast Feels like yesterday you were in the I.C.U. Was there any other way, I wish I only knew Three month seventeen days later I found my true love She filled that huge crater, we fit each other like a glove her love for me is unconditional she's I like you a bit traditional I just want for you to know I'm finally ready to let you go
