I waited for you all my life
I'll wait for you in heaven
and when your foot steps
lead to me I'll be
in room 11

The teachings of dad by Wayne Ernzer
This is dedicated to Peter Joseph Ernzer
The smartest man I knew
The teachings of dad
I am telling you now
that to me seems so clear.
that the teachings of dad
will always be dear
and will always be with me
through my following years.
When i do my work
through my regular day .
he is there in my mind
always showing the way.
rather tying a rope
or sharpening a tool
there is something to be said
about dad's kind of school
He took time to to tell me
what's right and whats wrong
and it runs through my mind
like a favorite song.
He's the kind of a person
I aspire to be.
the way that he does things
is something to see
when my puzzled pieces
just don't seem to fit
he would show me another way
of looking at it
Oh what would would one do
with out the teachings of dad
to know him in my life
just makes me so glad
And I know that the lives
of others he's touched
just could not help saying
they learned just as much
I am always there with him
he is there by my side
and even in travel
he's along for the ride
I thank you dad
for just being there.
And you'r teachings to me
to my son I will share

Soul Searching Surfer By Wayne Ernzer
A letter to my to son while on his 9 month surfing journey around the world
I am just a soul searching surfer
and a dedicated guy
who hoped and prayed
and scrimped and saved
so one day I could fly.
My Idea was to travel the globe
And to surf where it could be had
and cheering me on were my biggest fans
Lets call them mom and dad.
I planned the trip
I knew the way
I traveled it
in my sleep
the wierd day was
when i sold my truck
no longer mine to keep.
still it fetched me most of
the the money
to make the
trip complete.
See a surfers dream
is to surf a wave
that's the best
he has ever had.
Then to paddel back out
to a better one
i think the word is rad.
You see surfing is like life
that much I have found
and neither should be taken for granted
I live for the rush when I am droping in
and my surfboard becomes slanted.
to harness the energy of the swell
that heads toward the beaches shore
I think of how lucky a surfer I am.
How could any one ask for more.

@ last @ least By Wayne Ernzer
A letter to my to son while on his 9 month surfing journey around the world.When his buddy John Swartz- Mr Mellow -had stopped by to take some things to Ian in New York before their leg through europe
@ last @ least youre not
cruzin alone and not
lukin or yur shoulder
whilst so fa frm home.
And John musta been freaked
when we loaded him down
With lead weighted brownies
and rocks that we found.
Then he picked up the box
that he couldnt see past
and I piled more on it
to see if he'd gasp.
So off to a new place that
thats calling to you.
Where they drive on the left
they should go back 2 school
So get some good point breaks
with cool slider walls
to crouch down
and grab rail
but try not to fall.
To stall back
and head dip
but nothing to small.
So aloha to u 2 now
and have good spin
and only do stuff
that brings forth a grin

You have a wonderful trip they said By Wayne Ernzer
A letter to my to son while on his 9 month surfing journey around the world.
You have a wonderful trip they said
as I started on my way
now my journey has taken me to so many places
I wished I would have stayed
I have traveled w/ my buddies and I
have gone it all alone
encounters with people places and such
in the heat or chilled to the bone.
I have surfed the lower Americas
and snow boarded Europe's fluff white
of the food and drink I have savored
has helped to make this trip quite right
I am headed for Australia
a new board and trunks are at hand
and when I get to the beach-
w/ tears of joy in my eyes
I will run accost that sand
this is something I have been waiting for
and the waves I plan to ride.
are said to have a most beautiful shape
on which I am shure I will glide
If my words could ever express all the wonders
one experiences along the way
I know you would save all your pennies
and take a trip
such as this some day
