Norm, some brilliant turns of phrase here lift this to something quite special. Lines like "framed himself in my memory" and "long enough to never forget me" are nicely skewed from what we'd expect to read, and the imagery in the third stanza is sparsely elegant.
This was genuinely a pleasure to read.
