A Special Poem from his Children

The time we had,Dad,
Wasn’t nearly enough
To pack in an entire
Lifetime of love.

There are are so many questions
That need answers to,
But now that you’re gone
There’s no way to ask you.

But there are still photos
To remember you by,
Each time we look at them,
We still want to cry

They say grief is easier
to bear as time goes by
But this doesn’t stop me
from wondering why?

Why our dear, sweet dad,
Was taken so soon,
When he was our guiding star,
Our sun and our moon.

There no answers
To a question like this,
So we will cherish your memory,
And mourn the years we will miss.
