For Baron, Farewell Dear Friend






                                For Baron, Farewell Dear Friend
                                            2007-2016

                Oh Baron, our wonderful mischievous big-hearted boy
                You have pranced through our lives spreading chaos and joy.
                Being with you was often a challenge, yet gleeful and fun
                Even if we frequently felt undone.

                You opened the cabinet, jelly jar and the canned soup
                 It was "only" a pop top but you found the loop.
                 The stove, cuisinart, computer too
                 Nothing was too big a challenge for you.

                You did not notice size whether large or small
                 Because your heart had room for us all.
                 The most joyful being to have graced our hearth
                 With wings and a smile you left this earth.

                  So go now, go without delay
                  Leap into the clouds - run and play.
                  Your unselfish love and courage, dear friend
                  Shall live in my soul till we meet again.
