Uncle

this is a Poem i am writing to express the feeling about my Uncle who is currently sick with Cancer.

A vast knowledge of Emotion.
Most known as undying truth.
Some as withering leaves as if from a dying branch.
We all feel the deep pain and sorrow.
as we have no thought but of the present.
we fail to honor the past.
lives full of love and joy.
his life withers away.
but his soul lives on.
deep within your heart, you feel his presence.
at times of your most deepest despair.
a hand upon your shoulder he shall place.
for he will be there as long as you allow.
Memories of the departed.
there souls shall stay within.
only when we come to this conclusion.
shall all be at rest.
sadness will not overcome my soul.
I live proudly knowing.
That I was part of his life.
He shall forever be at my side.
