Some people's kids!
I'd like to tell you that my children inherited all of their talent from me.
But, I don't write poetry, I don't play guitar, piano, or violin. Of course, Dad
doesn't either! Where it comes from, I don't know...but I am really proud of all
of them. These poems were written just recently by Jared and Lucas. Some you
will see are in memory of a friend of theirs who was killed this spring. I will
be adding more very soon. Aaryn has promised me her book of poems to look
through too!
"Goodbye Great
Friend"
Goodbye, great friend Why did you go away? You see that we're aching And now that you've gone But I cannot wait to see And I know you'll be By Lucas Cook The
brightest star is all burned up By Jared
Cook Torn away by Jared Cook You must be an angel You just can't imagine Sent straight from heaven, My soul is tortured by Jared Cook
In Loving Memory of
Jeremiah Riordan
I'll see you in the end
But for now I cry,
And wonder why
Why couldn't you just stay?
There is no mistaking
This tragedy is making us die
It's very hard to move on
I've tried but I can't be strong
And all I can say is so long.
The day that together we'll be
Watching over me
But I can't wait to see
The face of this tragedy.

"The
Star that Burned like the Sun"
In Loving Memory of Jeremiah Riordan
and lost from the sky forever.
But in the heavens there is a scar
that won't go away ever.
The star shined so bright
but it went away
but we think about it everyday.
We will never forget that shining star
that lit up the sky with light.
The scar is there but the sky isn't the same
without that shimmering sight.

"Away too Long"
from what I love most.
Not forever,
But it feels like its close
Torn apart
because
I can't see you
Waiting impatiently
to hear "I
love you too."
Crying wildly
from memories so
sweet.
Knowing someday
again we'll meet.
"Broken Heart"
sent down just for me.
Every minute without you
seems like eternity
how much love I feel.
When I'm with
you
nothing else is real.
flying down on golden wings.
So
Unbelievably flawless.
tears are what your memory brings.
because we are apart.
I know its not
forever,
but for now.........broken heart.
