R H 30th December 2010

On the Twenty seventh of december, A day I’ll never forget A screech from Mum got me all upset I knew it was over and no longer a dream When I saw Dad’s eyes, returning from the scene I always thought you would grow old with me To laugh and talk about us being silly If only I could see you one more time I would say, ' I miss you, Good-Bye ' But You never told me you were going away Until you left that one December Day A son, A brother, A friend so true Whatever he had, he'd share it with you A thought, a deed, a kind gurgle for a while But always, oh always, He'd share 'His Smile' Our hearts are breaking, our thoughts are going wild We've lost our friend; We've lost our child 'I needed him, ' I heard Jesus say 'He's been chosen for the Master's Bouquet' A room would brighten when you would come in Cause the first thing we saw, would be your grin Even when you're not in sight You're in my thoughts day and night Today, Jesus, as You are listening in your home above Would you go and find Joshua and give him all my love And now my poem will come to an end, Until the day we meet again I pray that you are now at ease. Goodbye my brother, May you Rest In Peace
