Last Humor
/My father had a good sense of humor,
He always came up with jokes
When we were in an embarrassing situation
His wit frequently saved our egos
And mended any tense relationship
When he became very ill
He still maintained his humor,
One day in the hospital
When his grandchildren
Came to see him from far away
My father though very tired
Opened his eyes
And with a smile
He looked at each of them
And said “I cannot see you clearly,
Don’t worry,
I am just passing through
On my way to paradise.”
And by his humorous words
The gloom was lifted
He then fell asleep
Never to wake again
It always warms our heart
When we think of him
