Laughter and Tears
By Brandi Butler

Sometimes friendship
ends,
sometimes it continues forever.
In the end,
you always remember the
laughter brought to
you by one person
who made you smile for no reason.
Just the thought of him brought a smile to
my heart.
We, Sara, Rachel, and I speak of him.
Amos, we would start out and giggle
to ourselves for he ment a lot to us.
Laughter, he brought to us.
Laughter he will always bring too.
A Nova trunk will always bring
a smile to our lips.
Seeing him pop out was the funniest moment..
"I am batman!"
"Sara, bet I can fly over your car!"

This is a Poem that i wrote to deal with a friends death, he was and is one of the most amazing people i have ever met..RIP My friend..Love Ya with all of my heart....
Off and running he goes!
"Brandi, buy me a pack of cigbutts."
"Amos,close the trunk!" we
shouted
Laughter will how I will always remember him
forever and ever.

This is a very personal poem. I think people did not respond to it because they did not know how. For this poem is close to your heart and is understood completely by you and the people who knew him. Good job.
