Echoes of Pookie

Oh, Pookie, where are you now?

The days were bright, but the world feels dimmed somehow.

We danced in the sunlight,

Chasing dreams on the winding road,

Two little hearts, side by side,

Through laughter and tears, our secrets bestowed.

You had a smile that lit up the night,

With a twinkle in your eye, you’d take flight.

You’d steal the cookies, blame it on me,

I was your shadow, but now I can’t see.

Oh, Tynisha, my Pookie, I miss you so,

Time is cruel, how it steals the show.

What I’d give to embrace your grace,

To hear your laugh, to see your face.

We painted our dreams in colors so bright,

Made memories under the starry night.

You ran with the wind, free as a bird,

While I learned from you, every whispered word.

You were the spark, the heart of the game,

Every small victory, oh, I felt the same.

Oh, Tynisha, my Pookie, I miss you so,

Time is cruel, how it steals the show.

What I’d give to embrace your grace,

To hear your laugh, to see your face.

Life turned a page and you slipped away,

Left with the stars, where the angels play.

God had a plan, though it breaks my heart,

In my memories, we'll never part.

So I’ll hold on tight to your laughter and light,

In every shadow, I’ll find you in sight.

Oh, Pookie, you’re forever my song,

In the melody of love, we’ll always belong.
