I  wrote this poem six days after my dad past away.It helps me to get threw the hurt of the loss of him. 

Dear dad you were taken away

but your marks are still with family and friends'

Your harsh bite we will all remember

as well as your glimer of hope forever

Your tall stories rather fiction or fact,true or false

Your voice rather happy or sad

Your appearance large or small

Your brown eyes,  your white hair

Your habits be naugty or nice

You were my dad and a friend to many

Now your gone but not forgotten

please watch over us as you did

when you were here.

We will keep you in our hearts and

thoughts forever,your gone but not forgotten.
