Cute snowy-haired child
Sprinkles of freckles; gilded face
Tender spirit; meek and mild
Paints a glorious picture of grace
A child of December
The angel I remember
Gentle, this boy; and unpretentious
A quiet achiever; naturally gifted
Imaginative and conscientious
But even here you drifted
A boy of December
The angel I remember
Kind and selfless; not materialistic
Boy not boy and man not man; Seeking alone.
Always seeking. Exceptionally artistic
The gentlest of gentle I've known
A son of December
The angel I remember
The poet emerged
Words lingered on lips. And died. Unspoken.
Feelings buried. Submerged.
Lineage and ties broken.
A man of December
The angel I remember
In memory of David
(Passed away 21 years ago today)
19 December 1963 - 13 December 1989

So sorry he was with us such a short time.

HUGGGGGGGGGGGGG
This was beautiful Kate. What a tribute. David was so young. too young. But he is remembered.
Feel like I knew him.
Doesn't get any easier does it - this one's thinking of you both today, with a hug and a tear from down the road.
He was indeed a very gentle and sensitive soul ... full of love, kindness and compassion. He never wanted for anything material.
His only wish ... his dream ... was for us, the world, to live in love and peace.
Perhaps an idealist ... but, yes, a beautiful dreamer.
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world
You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
~ John Lennon
PEACE, David. I love you.
Fusun: Oh, dear, dear friend .... THANK YOU!
I know December well. It is a month of miracles.
Love to you, Katie. Exceptional write!

And sometimes, we don't need the miracle ... we just need to give love and understanding... to others... and to ourselves.
And they do sound similar ... yes .... an angel of unfulfilled promise and full of missing
