Array ( [sid] => 181513 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => To DJ (David Jackson Abney) [time] => 2015-08-02 18:17:58 [hometext] => This poem is close to my heart. I read this at my sons funeral. Hardest thing I've ever had to write, or read. I hope that this poem can bring comfort to those mourning the death of anyone. RIP DJ [bodytext] => Here we are my son and we're all here
Gathered round to shed some tears
To celebrate the life you had
Life too short, so sweet, yes my son this is so sad

And although we'll never understand
Why you weren't chosen to become a man
You'll always be here in our hearts
And your family shall never part

Because in your short sweet precious life
You saved your family from pain and strife
You brought your big brothers, Mommy & Daddy too
Closer together, you are the glue

So here we are my son, and we're all here
Gathered round to scream and cheer
To celebrate the life you had
Life to short, so sweet, yes my son this is so sad

But rest assured son at the end of every night
We will remember why we choose to live our life
It will be to honor you DJ and all those who have died
That was robbed of that precious gift called life [comments] => 3 [counter] => 304 [topic] => 22 [informant] => blknwht [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LostLove )
