We haven't remembered him less,
in fact, we never forget him; we have just learned
to accept he is no longer here, not near
to hear his voice, see his smile, to give him a hug.
But always with us
in our thoughts, and memories held dear
If we ever argued i don't recall; maybe once or twice
in our teenage years, whether it was
Peter, Paul & Mary or Led Zeppelin on the stereo.
My brother was a sweet soul, not prone to bad temperament
or disagreement. He loved and lived life fully, and
liked to laugh. Walt passed away eight years
ago today. It was Memorial Day that year.
For us , his family and friends who love and
miss Walt, May 30 will always be our Memorial Day
