I am not a poet, which will soon be obvious. This is a tribute to a very sweet young man than I loved like a son. I needed to say these things and this seemed as good a vehicle as any. No comments are necessary. Thank you all for any prayers you send his way.

A Holiday Season filled with cheer
Yet I look around to see only tears
A young man full of life has left
And my heart aches – I am bereft
He was serious, funny, and sweet
The kind you want your daughter to meet
A beautiful spirit, a beautiful man
To save my soul, I don’t understand
He leaves a hole in many a heart
The world is less without his spark
I pray he is in a special place
I need to believe he is forever safe

A late night out with friends
A sudden crash and metal bends
It appears that all are alive and well
Then two weeks later it goes to hell
A late night call to give the news
A feeling of sickness then ensues
A need to cry a need to shout
I just don’t know what it’s all about
I want to make time turn back
There is no blame, that’s a fact
But I still want someone to blame
It’s just a tragedy and such a shame

We love you Trevor
