Dear Maurice



Maurice Ernest Gibb C.B.E.
December 22, 1949- January 12, 2003

                  Dear Maurice

Dear, Maurice, I didn't know from the start
How much you would touch my heart.
Your laughter, humor, kindness and love,
Always lifts my spirit to the above.
Your beautiful smile, your eyes so bright,
Still shines and resonates to many heights.
Dear Maurice, I think of you and all that you left when you passed away.
But your life, your music, your humility will never sway.
You are loved by many, admired by more.
I want you to know that you are really adored.
Dear Maurice, You've been gone so long,
But your beauty, your smile, your love of song.
Still lingers and lingers in my heart and mind.
I can truly say, you were one of a kind.
Dear Maurice, its been 19 years and you are truly missed.and .that's quite awhile.
But I still see your lovely face and beautiful smile.
Dear Maurice, I remember you with fondness and a smile on my face, but your beautiful face and witty style,  will never be seen again in this place.
Dear Maurice, I pray from my heart,
That you are resting in peace in a place where you are cherished and loved.
Where genuine peace and everlasting love,  can never be erased in this place above.
Unending love, undying grace that you, Maurice so greatly  deserve.

Yvette Sayles
