Luke Baker Poem
I remember waiting at the garden gate so filled with joy
Waiting for my hero to come and picks us up -i was just a boy
We only saw you on the weekends through no fault of your own
I knew you would always be there ,you would never have left us alone
Those summer days when you would take us away
I remember them as if they were yesterday
Walking through the fields, climbing the hills
Playing in the sea, flying a kite as far as the eye can see
The caravan holidays playing in the arcades
So many memories no one can take away
The fun fair rides that would take me up high
Seeing you laughing as i went whooshing by
I remember sitting on the dodgems laughing as we bumped into each other
Thinking to myself how lucky i am to have you as my father
Christmas mornings waiting for you to come over
Not wanting to open our presents untill we were all together
Sundays all around nans for tea
Setting of the fireworks i would watch from under the big tree
We went to the cinema i had to lie about my age
I hope these great memories i have never fade
Two old ladies sitting in the sun there skirts up to there knees
You brought them both an ice cream they turned and smiled at me
Those long days spent together fishing
Running up the canal laughing because you had fallen in
So many memories i have
I'm so glad to have you as my dad
You worked so hard to give us kids a good start
I will always love you from the bottom of my heart

Luke Baker Poem
Facing another summer nothing to look forward to
Until the 18th June the day that i met you.
Each day in a trance time passing me by
Laying in bed each night wanting to cry.
Then i met you the 18th of June
I new good things were coming to me soon.
My demons holding me back keeping me in the dark
Then i met my angel standing before me in the park.
Shining light on my face chasing away my shadows
Giving energy to life like the sun rays in meadows.

Luke Baker Poem
Its been years since i last saw your face
I still think about you each and every day
Will the pain of losing you ever go away
I used to believe in God and the heavens in the sky
I never use to ask the question why
Whenever innocent people would die
But now i refuse to have faith and believe
When someone so close has been taken from me
My mother whom i loved
I can see you now looking so ill
If only there could have been more time for us to fill
You were being taken from us to the other side
The fact that i was so scared was making me temporarily blind
How i wish i could see you today and tomorrow
Wondering how long it will be leaves me in sorrow
I have no choice but to wait
How long that will be is decided by fate
Now when i look back at the good times we shared
I remember those days with a tear of joy
They seem so long ago now i was just a boy
I hope now when we next meet we will have forever
I pray we will have eternity together
At least now you suffer no pain
And your soul has been set free
I look forward to the next day we meet
I hope you will be proud of the man i have turned out to be
