A flame at your core
Warm in December
We'd hardly let hearts pour
But now let's remember
The fires you sparked
Inspired us members
As family, but tragedy
Douses the embers
Your fire burned bright
Imprinted our vision
We still see your light
Still warms us from within
So laughter still rings
Though you're not still here
Your memory endlessly
Keeps your warmth near
The winter brings cold
We'd wish, as we shiver
For one touch of sunshine
We'd need just a sliver
Hither your birth!
Gave life to remember
Your spirit, one fearless
Keeps warm in December

Fine tribute to your friend.
'Your fire burned bright
Imprinted our vision
We still see your light
Still warms us from within'..
a truly wonderful dedication, sorry for your loss
thanks for sharing
Beautifully written, I too lost a childhood friend last year in August which was why I haven't been here.. Just catching up with your great work 🌹
Thank you! I'm sorry to hear about your friend, it can be a devastating loss, but I'm glad to see you around again.
Likewise dear friend 💯
