In Loving Memory

I wrote this poem in memory of my uncle Kevin. He passed away recently of cancer, which he fought against for 4 years, and didn't ever stop trying to fight it. Hope you like it, and would appreciate comments and ratings. Thanks xxxx

The photographs that make me smile

Memories swirling round my mind

Air guitar in the back room as a kid

Barbeques in the summer months

Looking up at the stars

Card games and board games for hours on end

Caravan holidays spent swimming in the pool

Birthday get togethers and Christmas dinners

Thank you for being the father I never had

I can’t believe you’re gone

Throughout the years

All the hearts you’ve touched

Remembering the feeling always

Little pieces of so many hearts taken with you

Yours to keep and look after for all of time

Disappeared without a trace

No time for goodbyes

Looking down from above

Sitting on a star watching us far below

The angel with that cheeky grin

You’ll never be forgotten

Your memory will last forever

And we’ll see you again someday

Brave and courageous from beginning to end

You’ve been an inspiration to all

Thank you for everything. 02/03/1959 - 18/04/2008
