Our Family Tree Is Shaken

Its Bough Ready To Break

Our Family Tree Is Shaken To The Core

Alas You Are No More

Taken, So Young, And In Such A Way

We Will Be Shaken

Your True Essences Remaining For Many A Long Day

The Family Tree Is Now Bending ,Not Broken

Resting Still To Gather Its Strenght, Its Will

Its Power Coming Together As One

Rooted In The Earth

To Which You Will Return

To Be With Your People

They Gather One By One

To Welcome You Home

To Your Heavenly Space

Family To Take Care Of You

May You Find Eternal Grace

As We Come To Terms With Your Earthly Loss

Many Will Be Left Counting The Cost

Of Not Listening Or Hearing The Warning Signs Of

Deadly Loss To Come

How A Father Could Be Capable Of Doing That To His Son

How His Mind Could Snap And Break Into A Million Pieces

Like The Hearts He Has Left Behind

Broken, Scattered

Everywhere

Broken Beyond Repair

A Sapling Torn From Our Tree

There Are No Words To Express Our Grief, Our Loss

To You From Me

P Byrne 2026
