Here is one of my favorites I created a few years back...

To Jim:

Sorrow, pain, agony. Daily collisions in everyday life. It follows and sometimes surrounds the soul within. Happiness, love, warmth. It follows you into the darkest cave. There is always light at the end of the tunnel, for me I just hope it is not a train. Some might be lost at first yet sooner or later you find guidance. Uncle Jim was my guidance in a way. But he was my sorrow as well. I wanted Jim to be at his best I had so much hope for him. When I visited him in the nursing home. It was like meeting someone for the first time. I was afraid to speak, I was afraid to move. My mind wanted to explode. At that moment I realized this was the first time in many years I actually sat next to him. As I walked outta that place I remembered the stories my father would tell me about Uncle Jim and his famous moon shine. My soul lightened and a small grin came to my face. Then I heard of the tragic event February 7, 2010, my noble Uncle died. I will not cry, nor will I frown. For I know his life had a purpose entwined with all of ours. Even though I am breaking my word now I swear I will never again.  You were strong so I promise I will be too. Your guidance has shown me happiness, which you cannot fight what you love. And what you love cannot be without your guidance. God Bless You Jim, May God Watch Over You, And My You Rest In Peace. We All Love You.
