I Love You Uncle Jeff Poem by WENDY KAY TADDAY

GROWING UP WITH YOU AT GRANDMAS I THOUGHT YOU WERE MEAN,
YOU WERE THE ONE WHO DISCIPLINED ME AND HELPED KEEP MY LIFE CLEAN..
I CAN REMEMBER SOME REAL GOOD TIMES THAT WE SHARED
AND BAD ONES AS WELL
AS I GREW OLDER I CAME TO REALIZE YOU DID WHAT YOU DID BECAUSE YOU TRULY CARED.
WE PLAYED GAMES, WE MADE ICE ANGELS AND A ICE IGLOO TO
IT DIDN'T MATTER WHAT WE DID I JUST LIKED SPENDING TIME WITH YOU
I DON'T KNOW IF YOU REMEMBER ALWAYS SITTING ON US AND OF COURSE LETTING ONE GO
AND THE OLD PULL MY FINGER THING, THE SAD THING IS I ALWAYS FELL FOR THAT TRICK I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN
DURING SCHOOL I HAD A TENDINCY ON HANGING WITH THE WRONG KIDS
THAT GOT ME IN A LITTLE TROUBLE AT TIMES, LIKE THE TIME YOU FOUND ME PASSED OUT ON MARGS LAWN, OR IN A TRAILER I SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN IN THERE, BUTYOU TOOK CARE OF IT BECAUSE YOU REALLY CARE
I KNOW WHEN I WAS YOUNGER YOU MUST HAVE THOUGHT I HATED YOU, BUT I DIDN'T I WAS JUST STUBBORN AND DID NOT WANT TO LISTEN TO ANYONE I LOVE YOU SO MUCH JEFF YOU MEAN EVERYTHING TO ME THANK YOU ….
