Treasured memories and Him

The sound of the car starting, 

The voice of my uncle singing along with the song

Playing in the background and the 

Videos playing on the phone 

At the highest volume 

Seems to be missing. 

Without these sounds, 

A deafening silence 

Surrounds the house.

The constant pestering to 

Change into better clothes 

On special occasions and festivals,

The sound of the camera shutter 

Clicking again and again 

To take numerous photos 

And make a hundred memories 

Which are going to last forever

Have suddenly disappeared

In the cold air of November. 

Uploading photos on Facebook

The socialising space 

Of all our parents, was one 

Of his favourite thing. 

No occassion went by 

Without him uploading the photos

On the same day. 

His habit of asking people

To switch on the flashlight

While clicking his photos

Will always be a funny memory for us!

Be it his eye smile or 

His loud sneeze

The little things 

Will always be missed.

 Little things that he did 

Like, calling our names from afar 

And taking us for rides 

In his car, are nothing but 

Memories that will be forever 

Treasured in the deepest 

Corners of our hearts.

Even though, he is gone 

He will forever live 

In the thousand of memories

That we made together

 God took him too soon

 But that can't be changed 

 At last, all I can say is

That he left an impression

On every one he met 

And that will, forever stay.
