In memory of those you miss :)

Arron James Green.
17th March 1986 - 6th March 2008

This is a contest where basically i want any poems in honour of people close to you that have died. Preferably personal ones as those are likely to be most emotional and straight from the heart.
That above, is a picture of my soulmate, AJ, he died nearly 4 months ago and i miss him more than i could ever explain, but havent managed to write a poem about it, its still too hard and no words seem to do him justice. Hopefully the entries in this will inspire me

Rhyme or free verse, choice is yours.

15-40 lines approximately.

Have fun & Good luck!

[More trophies and points will be added when i judge]

  3. Death no longer hides it's fermenting stench,
    Your bare body lays upon the iron bench.

    Thank you very much for the gold nod...I am both thrilled and humbled by the gesture. As well as for the inspiration. I dearly hope that your beloved and my cousin are now in a quiet spot up in the clouds having tea and thinking of us both.

    My warmest thoughts and hugs go with you.

    Congrats to all!
