Poem

[highroller]

Now I already know that this has nothing to do with RCMP but I wrote this the other night, and for anyone that has ever lost a loved one this poem brings comfort.

Never Alone (A Father/Husbands Protection)

When I looked out over the patio tonight I noticed a single star,
With fog so dense you couldn't see the moon I new it could only be you,
I stared at you for awhile hoping for a reason,
Then realized at that very moment that you weren't gone at all,
In fact you are and always will be alive in our hearts and memories,
Your love is strong Leo,
So strong in fact that it has burned a hole in the fog,
Just so that the light of you can keep us warm and protected at night,

Though night shall fade and day shall come,
I know that you will not have abandoned me,
For you are now my shadow that guides and protects my day,
I know now that I shall never walk alone again,
For you will always be there holding my hand,
One would not think to ever hurt me,
For they will see my Father/Husband at my side,
And know that a man of great stature and power protects me,

I will sleep easy tonight,
Knowing that you are there beside me,
When I feel that extra bit of warmth and security at night,
I know it is but your arms wrapped around me.

I am Never Alone, And You Are Never Forgotten.

Jason Deline,

This poem was written by myself the night after Leo O'Brien passed away. I did not have the honnor of knowing Leo as well as I would have liked too but from what I know and have heard he was a great man and a wonderful father/husband.

This poem was inspired by the actual star that you read about in this poem.

This is the first time that I have ever kept any record of a poem that I have written.

This Poem is dedicated to Judy and Dawn, Leo's beloved wife and daughter. His passion his life
