One Year Later poem

The summer grass grows on this lovely day
Can't believe it's been over one year today
At this time we would be going to county fairgrounds delight
or just sitting near a lake on a moonlit night
The holidays, the parties with family fun
We'll never be forgotten at the end of your run
You always work hard day into the night
and yet there were times that we still fight
You planted carrots, corn and beets that were red
taught me lessons in life that still stay inside my head
You were always the leader of our family troop
but God wanted you to be part of his group
In the early months we cried and we didn't understand
why he took you away for his master plans
As months have passed me bye, I will always remember his smile
or how he would always go the extra mile
That even after one year today
He would still want me to get on my knees pray
