Robert O'Reiley

hands which formed from dust and clay

with every wrinkle showing the hills and valleys of wisdom

eyes containing the very essence known to us a heaven

showing us through sparkle the very power known to us as a soul

a smile so warm and loving it can only be compared to

fresh baked apple pie and warm fleece blankets in winter

his hugs were golden

creating ladybugs with red paint and pebbles

a hobby that showed the innocence of child in him

forever will the autum leaves create his color

the summer breeze sing his name

through memories he will never be forgotten
