A tribute

by Carolyn Coville

Peach fuzzed, blonde hair
Big brown eyes, megawatt smile
Goofy, sweet, class clown
And who can forget that silly giggle as your shoulders shook

This is how I want to remember you,
not lying prim and proper with your hands folded

So forgive me, friend, for not attending your services
Forgive me, if I can't bring myself to see your eyes stitched closed
I'd rather see you in another lifetime

Author's Note: My small hometown has lost too many friends, brothers, sisters, to fatal car accidents...RIP Dean Sobieski, 10/10/86 - 5/31/04
