[In Dedication]

My Dad passed away in the early hours of Sunday morning on the 8/8/2004. Just as we thought he was getting better he suddenly died in my arms. We often think we have more time than we do...

I spent 4 wonderful days with him and we really connected. I am privileged that he was able to wait for me and that I could help him move on safely in his spiritual journey. To be separated physically from some one so great is terribly painful....

My experience with Dad can best be felt in my following poem-


The Greatness of Being

I knocked on your door
You didn't react
I knocked again
You were not awake

I knocked even harderDad-'Frank van Buul'
Screamed and raved
You said you heard me
But that didn't go far

I wanted to come in
You didn't know how
I couldn't reach you
I didn't know how

I loved you and hated you
I cried 'why me!'
I've always missed you
Couldn't you see?

Time is an illusion
I see that now
And all that you taught
I have learnt 'em now

I realised I could
See you at eye
With all my love
Before you should die

In those 4 days
I have waited a life time
To feel you as me
In gods unity

Thankyou for being
Thankyou for you
I am enriched by your love
As I feel for you.

"with love dad, with love. "
