Azure skies call me.
I search them for your laughter—
You did not come home.

Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.

So sorry
gorgeous work Scott...
This deserves to be a top story.
This is incredibly moving, Scott. Sorry for your loss.
What a wonderful poem. Fantastic job
Oh Scott. No words. My heart goes out to you. A wonderfully sincere and deeply moving haiku. ❤
Hampton is beautiful young man. Gone wsy too soon. Your heartbreaking words pierce my heart. Prayers for you and Hampton.
Such a wonderful tribute to your son. These truthful, raw moments of love like this lets them live on, if only in your heart, which matters the most. While thank you is not nearly adequate, I am grateful for his service. I am so very sorry for your loss, Scott.
