Well everyone.. i'm normally a big fan of sonnets.. but for some reason this is the first that i never wrote as a sonnet ...but this is one that i wrote the night before my boyfriends father's funeral. I didn't read it at the funeral because I thought it might be hard for those of us that knew how he passed away to hear it. But I felt that I should share it. So that his memory is never
forgotten.
[glow=blue,2,300]Why did you have to go?
And leave your family so?
Why did you have to leave?
Now the world will grieve?
Because a great man is now lost at sea
In the heavens where you and god can just be
I hope you see how much your missed
and that many of us are just so pissed
If you could only see how much we all need you
The world just fell apart, no one knew what to do
Did you know that you were wise, fun, a great friend, dad, husband, brother, and son?
You also had good taste in music, were a lover, a fighter, a leader, a hero, this list will never be done
A large piece of our hearts were broken that day
That day you decided that you had to go away
I wish you had stayed and lived till old age
You were only 51, what was your gauge?
You still had graduations, weddings, and birthdays too!
Being a grandfather, now what will we do?
You were an angel that was sent to earth
You've given so much, ever since your birth
I wish I could tell you how much you meant to us all
And how you'll leave behind 3 kids that were all wonderful and tall
What happens now to those 25 years with your wife?
Does she just pick up and start a new life?
What of your brother and loving father?
Did you think you were becoming a bother?
Well listen hard and listen well!
You are a soldier and an angel that fell!
No one blames you and no one is mad
We all loved you and are extremely sad
One day we all will meet again!
Just remember that you were the one the only amazing
Chief O
Major O
D.F.O
but always,...
THE WIZ![/glow]
I didn't put his whole name on here like it is in the poem. He was a great mentor to me. And everyone called him the Wiz because he could fix anything, and he was a Chief in the Air National Guard.
Thanks everyone!
