Tania Kitchin Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

I wrote this poem as a tribute to my Uncle Walt. He died this week, just 15 days after my Father ( his Brother) died.  Heaven gained two angels this month.

Uncle Walt

I am writing this poem for you today
Can’t believe you have really gone away
You were a beautiful person with a kind soul
It’s so difficult to say goodbye and let you go

Your laugh was infectious, your spirit always warm
You could put out family fires and calm the storms
Fond memories with you flood my mind, make me smile
I Remember when you tutored me, going the extra mile

I will cherish memories of our holiday celebrations
You always made them fun and special occasions 
You are at peace now; I know it was your time to part
Memories of you Uncle Walt, I will hold close to my heart
