The One I Miss the Most

I miss my little ‘Candy’
They say dogs, are our best friends

I miss my youth and vitality
But most, I miss my kin

I’m ready for your hubby,  
The kiddies and pork roast

I miss them bad and it’s borderline
But you I miss the most.

I hate I missed your ‘Special’ day
When you turned thirty -six

‘Though I know you had the greatest time 
With sweet, and ‘macho’ Rick

They still gather here for meals
Your brothers, sister-in-law, and sister

And talk in reminiscing 
‘Of  Jeri, and how much we miss her’

So when you come to visit
Tell Rick....he’ll cook the roast   (mmmmmm....I remember)

I’ll kiss them all, no doubt I’ll cry
I want them near, I cannot lie

I’ll raise my ‘coke’ and propose a toast
Hold you close and then I’ll boast
How it’s you, I missed the most
