Elegy
“Tio (Uncle)”

Oh Uncle little did I know ya.
Now sadly you are dead.
So many things left unsaid,
But I will never forget some of the things you told me.
I will hold onto them forever because of how they helped mold me.
Life can be like ocean full of high and low tides.
You sure did have one heck of a ride.
I will always remember being with you,
Your were one of my favorite family members.
I didn't know the last time we met up it would for the very last time,
But I’ll be more than sure to say hello on the other side.
