In the quiet hush of dawn, I hear your whisper,
A lingering touch of warmth, now faint and distant,
Your laughter echoes in the chambers of my heart,
A melody of moments, now a bittersweet symphony.

The days stretch long, shadows cast by memories,
Your guiding hand no longer leads the way,
Yet, in the twilight, your wisdom shines so bright,
Like stars that pierce the veil of night.

I walk the path you’ve paved with love and grace,
Each step a tribute to the man you were,
Though tears may fall, your strength remains my shield,
Your spirit lives in every breath I take.

In dreams, I find you, smiling, ever near,
A beacon of hope in darkest hours,
Though you’ve journeyed far beyond my sight,
Your legacy, a light that never fades.
