You pushed me
In your stubborn way ..
You pulled me..
Trying to convince me to stay..
You picked on me..
Trying to make me fit in..
Offering up your family ...
Including me as your friend..
So stubborn in your ways..
As you climbed the latter of life..
Never falling far..
No matter how hard the fight..
Never giving up..
Only listening to your heart..
As if each day were a cruise for you to embark..
Glowing with inspiration..
That spread to all you knew
Life was never a burden
It was simply an adventure to you.
Recreating your future
Full speed ahead .. with no fear..
Failure was never an option ..
No, was a word you would never hear
Love was never a question..
You showed it for all to see
Your arms were always opened ..
Your friendship always free.
You were a master of persuasion..
In your own special way..
Pushing people towards golden moments..
Who would normally stay at bay.
A conusor of each golden moment ..
Each sunset in the sky..
Not letting even one golden moment
ever slip by
Always wanting to share them..
With family and friends..
Even as you quietly sailed away..
We could still feel a part of you within us..
Memories that will never fade.
And as we all sat together to say our good bye..
I looked around at the crowd of people..
and saw through your eyes..
You pushed and you pulled..
Like a plow in a field..
Planting seeds of memories
that eventually grew..
Into a forest of family and friends
Who saw that special side of you
Now you are resting
upon the waves of the sea..
All your pain is over..
You can finally go in peace.
Your Forest is protected..
The forest of David will never die..
You live on in our hearts..
Forever young and alive.

A Brothers Hug A Brothers Kiss
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A brothers hug, A brothers kiss,
A grieving family, You're greatly missed.
A quiet phone, An empty chair,
A brothers love, No longer there.
A broken heart, Tear filled eye,
Another soul to fill the sky.
Many memories in my mind,
Memories of you that will last a lifetime...
The times we shared, The best childhood we had,
Missing your smile makes me sad.
Realizing that's all I have to hold on too,
Is Memories, Of times spent with you.
Missing your laugh, I will never again hear.
That is the reality that fills my heart with tears.
No more smile on your face,
No more warmth of your embrace.
The last hug, The last kiss,
The last "goodbye" leaves me with one last wish...
To have you back David, here today,
Never to see you sail away .
A brothers touch, A brothers kiss,
A grieving Family, YOU'RE GREATLY MISSED!
