A mentor, a role model, a blessing in disguise,
helped me realize my gifts, opened up my eyes,
to the truth that wasn’t hard to see,
From a special owl who is wise.
CARD, JAM and ABC, helps to find the inner me,
led from out the darkness,
the goal is SAM, the light I see.
The six steps of decision, through you I’m given,
tools to use outside the prison,
makes for a better outcome,
a safer way of living.
Know that this is not easy,
you won’t be there physically,
but you’ll never leave me,
when I’m lost and at the crossroads,
you are the star so bright that leads me.
In my heart & in my soul, you will stay forever,
helped fill in the empty hole,
buried the knowledge treasure,
and for you I am so thankful.
Forget about you?
NEVER.
