A poem by Bridget



Remember

Remember the blueberry cake you always made?
My mom always tried to make it but it was never quite the same.
Remember all the times you took me to the movies?
We would always share a bag of Reese’s pieces.
Or the night’s I’d sleepover and we’d play board games?
Trouble and Yahtzee will never be the same.
Remember the time you took me to the pool and I met some of your friends?
I wish we could have done that again.
Remember when you taught me to tell time—
And helped me count by telling me you loved me all the way up to 1099?
I used to make you watch Babes in Toyland over and over again with me
And you always used to surprise me with a bag of cotton candy
I always loved sleeping in your water bed
You would make a ton of waves for me to tread
Now that you are gone a piece of us goes too
But I can smile now because I know Bubba is with you
Jones Ave will never shed the same light
But your sprit will live on every day and every night
I’m sure your voice will be missed on magic 106.7
And I bet you’ll be playing the lottery even in heaven
Don’t worry Auntie we’ll make sure Morgan knows every little detail about you
And she’ll love you just as much as we do
