Don Poem by Randy McClave

Don



I still remember the first time that we met
I think my sister was either a blonde or a brunette,
You were of course married to my sister Sue
And of course, we all truly loved you.
You had a kindness and a very special smile
That seemingly could stretch on for over a mile,
And our mom of course loved and cared for you so
She once told me truly that your soul did glow.
I wished together that we had walked
I wished together that we had laughed and talked,
But, of course I was here and you were there
But, I swear to you every night you were in my prayer.
You are indeed more than just a brother-in-law
As you always brought forth a mighty and happy awe,
You are family, just like my brother-in-law John
You are always my friend and my family, Don.
