Array ( [sid] => 36886 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => MUST BE A MISTAKE? [time] => 2004-03-01 07:50:17 [hometext] => I wrote this poem for a dear friend that had just lost his classmate, who was a very good friend, close as a brother. [bodytext] =>
"The Grand Tetons in Wyoming"

Are you sure you told me right?
Did I hear you say my friend died tonight?
The years between many lived, gone!
Another dear classmate sleeps this dawn.

More to me than all the others, a brother.
An encouraging friend, to help another.
His Wonderful father, to guide us his boys
Included me in his family, with it's joys.

Memories are closer now, to recall
High School Days, studies, his beckon call.
The Rumsey Brothers were like twins.
Harold, Bernard, and I, their love wins.

Death is an enemy of man, unless a
suffering relief.
No quality left to live in a man's life, but grief.
No death nor sleep covered over, my love
n'er past.
He will always be remembered,
his love will last!

Created for
Jack (Foxy) Hughes
The loss of his dear
friend, and mine....

"The Grand Tetons in Wyoming"

A wonderfully written tribute to a fallen friend. I can only say if something was written about me in like manner after I die. I would smile where ever I might be....A very nice thing you have done.....Russ
