Depiction of My Late Son

The colour of your skin 
Was almost dark and with sheen 
it is sad of your  death
For your colour will no longer be Seen

Your hair was jet black
 your fingers long and slender
Your eyes were hazel green
And they will no longer be seen

Your laughter was so cheerful
You passing was so tearful
Wish you’re here
To hold you oh so dear

Your heart was full of gold 
It did not get old
Because of you
Being ever so brave and bold
