~Just letting you know this is a tear jerker ~ for me anyway. My grandfather is very sick and far away from me. My mom, my grandpa, my sister, myself... we are scattered through the states.... so I wanted   more...to do something for my family in this time of sorrow... I have to say, spending a few days making this video for my grandpa allowed me to grieve, reminisce, and heal a little all at the same time. I have a new appreciation for Live Video now for this and for being able to express myself and to share with my family in the moment. Being able to give this gift to my grandpa, letting him know how much he is loved. There's been so much lost time, these photos are the only photos I have of us together, preserving the three visits I've had with him. I think what I am trying to say is that when you love someone, don't put off telling them so, because the days and years move so fast. I love you Grandpa.

So, it's a day later and I come to find out that my Grandfather passed away about the same time I was uploading this video. It's OK. He's at peace now. God Bless. April 19th, 2007  less

This is my second avatar haiku video. it has zuko, azula, mai, ty lee, and a haiku with azula, ty lee, and mai.
if your wondering what zuko's talking about, it's about people using the song sexyback for   more...his theme. i think it's annoying people do that and not a song that means something, so yeah.
I'm making another haiku video with ozai, zhao, iroh, suki and yue.  less

Judy Burnette´s Poem "Dad" published in 1999:

http://www.netpoets.com/poems/death/0319006.htm

Dad...so many images come to mind
whenever I speak your name;
It seems without you in my life
things have never been the same.
What happened to those lazy days
when I was just a child;
When my life was consumed in you
in your love, and in your smile.
What happened to all those times
when I always looked to you;
No matter what happened in my life
you could make my gray skies blue.
Dad, some days I hear your voice
and turn to see your face;
Yet in my turning...it seems
the sound has been erased.
Dad, who will I turn to for answers
when life does not make sense;
Who will be there to hold me close
when the pieces just don't fit.
Oh, Dad, if I could turn back time
and once more hear your voice;
I'd tell you that out of all the dads
you would still be my choice.
Please always know I love you
and no one can take your place;
Years may come and go
but your memory will never be erased.
(Today, Jesus, as You are listening
in your home above;
Would you go and find my dad
and give him all my love.)

Brett Keane´s "Poem" - "Erase My Innocence":

So many images race through my mind
Whenever I speak your name
It seems without you in my life
Things will never be the same
What happened to those days
When I was just a child
The Innocence
When my life was consumed in you
In your love and in your smile
What happened to all those times
When I always looked to you
No matter what happened in my life
You always got me through
I turn to see your face
Yet in my turning it seems
The sound has been erased
When life does not make sense
Who will be there to hold me close
When the pieces just don´t fit
If I could turn back time
and once more hear your voice
I would tell you always know
I love you and no one can take your place
Years may come and go
But your memory will never be erased

Coincidence? lulz. Taking advantage of someone else´s dead parent is all good when it suits you BK...

He took down his videos declaring he was going to sue people for copying his work But luckily thefriendlypaki (that´s his username) cunningly downloaded the "BRETT KEANE IS SUEING YOUTUBE" videos for our delectation and delight here:
