In Memory

So tell me now, it’s been so long
Since last time I did see you
What is it like to where you moved
This place that you call home now

I must admit, tis often that I miss you
So many times I think of you
You always were so much more
I miss your kindness and your wisdom

So many jokes about mother-in-laws
Likened to dragons breathing fire
Not one of those applied to you
Your light shone so much brighter

The last view, a waxen look
As you lay there in your coffin
The music played as we said goodbye
And out you were carried

So I tell you now, it’s been so long
Down here we all miss you
I know one day when time is right
We’ll meet up there in heaven
