THANKSGIVING 2011
The room was so quiet
Not like when you were in it
The walls weren’t echoing your laughter
The wine glasses emptied
Without you here to refill them
We go on because we must
But life just isn’t at the level you brought it to
Your grandson is just learning to walk, he was lucky, though he may never remember
You held him, you spoke to him
You’ve got a grand-daughter on the way
She should have heard your voice, your laugh, your off-key notes, your poems, your songs
Still, we must be thankful for the times we had
For you rarely turned down an opportunity
You made the most of the life you had
You knew how to live and embrace life
You were a burning star to be followed
And though we can no longer see your brightness burning
We can remember the light of your presence and bask in the remnants of its warmth
