A poem I wrote on the way back from a friends funeral.

The moon was so red that night

On my way home, that sight

You were lying there

Perfectly still, no cares

When word had come

I was stunned

You were so young

Just a year born

Before me

It’s so hard to see

Seems just like yesterday

You were a kid at play

Despite what some will say

I’ll pray anyway

As we all look at you

Can’t believe this is true

Tears all around the room

Why did you go so soon?
