Goodbye Bobby Morton...x

poem by: Frank Hornby .
Written on Apr 16, 2018

"I watched my brother in law die today, 
he took his final breath,
as he lay surrounded by his loving family,
he succumbed to inevitable death.
His body lay there lifeless...slowly turning cold,
the ward was filled with sobbing, 
our Bobby was eighty years old."
