In Memoriam 21 October 1946 - 13 April 2006

As I reflect on another year past,
I can’t believe what I’ve seen,
The party up there is raging larger,
As threads here unravel at their seams,
As I pen this missive down,
I once again feel shattered,
Pain has become a constant of life,
And it’s often hard to see what matters,
But I hold myself together,
Knowing I live in your light,
In the laughter of a little boy,
Your smile is never out of sight,
I miss you now more than ever,
You always knew what to say,
When things looked their hardest,
Your quiet strength found a way,
From your place, in the universe,
I pray you watch over us,
Guide and strengthen my soul,
As I welcome another Son’s opus…
