In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it's the memories of you that are the most precious.

Uncle Sparky, thank you for everything.There hasn't been a day that has passed that I haven't reminisced in my mind about the last few months and the time we shared.I know you are pain free now and back behind the wheel of that eighteen wheeler.Freedom is once again your best friend.
I miss you very much.I miss our silly conversations,I miss you telling me to sit down and stay for awhile.But most of all I miss you telling me,"I love you " each and every time I stopped down to see you .I just wish there was a stairway to heaven and I was able to climb up and talk to you when things are crazy. Your famous words would be "It's going to be ok".
Until we see each other again,you will remain my My Friend,My Inspiration,My Uncle Sparky .
Always to be Loved and NEVER to be forgotten
