I think of you each year this day,
Always wishing for a way,
To tell you, show you, all she’s done,
The lovely fivesome, they’ve become.
You’d be SO proud, to know, to see,
The life she’s built; her family.
She’s still strong and so smart-
Still has such love in her heart.
A friend like no other-
The best wife; the best mother.
Inward and outward beautiful too,
All partly because, of life spent with you.
I’m so grateful to know her and thankful to you,
For shaping and molding, and raising her, too.
At first I was sad, then angry you’d left us,
Especially as it was, so close to Christmas,
But after some time, some calm & some thought,
I see that the timing, wasn’t for naught,
What month brings such joy, such love as December,
The time is for family, and now, to remember.
The season brings cheer, love and good spirits,
And now thoughts of you, at all family visits,
Trees are put up, dinners prepared,
Memories of you, are lovingly shared.
Always.
Merry Christmas, PK.
