Andy DeBruin

d. September 27, 1985

nevermore

will your smile we see

nevermore

will your hands we hold

nevermore

will your laugh be heard

my friend

now that you've gone

I realize what you were

the fun we've had

            (the sand we've thrown)

now it's merely memory

I say to God

it isn't right

but He must know

what's best

oh to have seen you

once before you left

to see once more

your smile

your eyes

your life

if only we could have said

just one last good bye

In memory of Andy DeBruin.

I found out this morning that he

had died, he was a good friend.
