A poem for my dear uncle Gil

Uncle Gil

You are far away from me

All the way up that hill

I miss you now, I miss you always

I know.. this feelings stays

Until the end of time

It’s a part of mine

I will never forget how you enlightened me

All with your words

You had a way of speaking

So inspirational

You could speak, almost national

We didn’t see each other often but I was always your princess

How could anybody care less

Why did this happen to you

Especially you, the kind and warm hearted person you were

You were an angel on earth and are one now in heaven

Heaven has gained the most worthy angel of all

Uncle Gil

You are far away from me

All the way up that hill

I can’t wait to see you again

Then my wish would be fulfilled

—

So far

Yet so close
