Helll Briefly reflect on the following questions.
When you ask someone to describe themselves, what types of answers do people usually
give? (.e. name, age, place of birth, profession, etc)

real idea of who.that person is?

1) Here lies the leaves of your fathers heart

Rinsed by the tears of his weary soul

Cries heard deep in the night

Stars that forever shine so bright

1) By saying "leaves" they mean whats left of the fathers broken heart. His heart was broken and all thats left is the shattered peices and the emptiness.

2) Still as the chirp of a mockingbird

Sharper than the sharpest knife

Prayers for children who sleep so tight

Dream of Dreaming with all their might

2) His heart was "sharp"; strong and bold. He prayed for children, so he showed kindess. And he dreamed that they had good dreams.

3) Lay in the pasture and cleanse your hands

Rub the land against the ground

forget yours truly, remember him forever and have no fright,

for your fathers leaves are fresh and new flying the highest height

3) Its time to rebuild and start over, "rub the land against the ground, forget yours truly"; forget about the life you once had but to still remember who you once were-"remember him forever and have no fright, for your fathers leaves are fresh and new flying the highest height" he is starting a new life, but do not forget who he was; now he is "fresh and new"

So just put this into two paragraphs..
