The Gathering

Grief and gratitude joined hands,
welcomed in a myriad of emotions,
as his family and friends gathered
at the place he loved the most.

To honour, to remember, to celebrate
a husband, a father, a friend,
whose loss from this world
left so many shattered.

There were tears and laughter,
heartbreak, comfort and support,
as this crew of his favourites
raised a glass and shared stories.

Grief and gratitude joined hands,
welcomed in a myriad of emotions,
as his family and friends gathered
at the place he loved the most.
