A poem...


When you go


When you go


who will


I laugh with?Cry with?


tell jokes with?


When you go


who will


hold me? cajole me? make me laugh?


Will I be able to


kiss you goodbye?


Or only kiss


Your coffin


You have been


My right side


Mother's glory


Daddy's wisdom


You  always


guided us...


Why does God need you?

Hugs,
