A FALLEN LIMB
A limb has fallen from the family tree, I keep hearing a voice that says, "Grieve not for me."
Remember the best times, the laughter, and the songs. The good life I lived while I was strong.
I am counting on you keep smiling through.
My mind is at ease, my soul is at rest, remembering all, how I was truly blessed.
Continue traditions, no matter how small. Go on with your life, don't worry about falls. I keep hearing a voice "I miss you all". So keep your chin up, until the day comes and we are together again.
