Yarrow

A tear rolls down my cheek.

A combination of sadness and joy.

The passing of a soul so meek.

From memories from when I was a boy.

 

Sad tales of growing up;

The loss if childhood innocence.

Songs of weaving sunshine to fill our cup.

Lost to time’s impetus.

 

I wish you peace upon your journey,

And I know the heavens have opened for you.

Kiss Mary when again you get to see,

And share with my mother a song or two.

 

Recordings will play on and on;

As a constant reminder of what you gave.

Alas tomorrow a new day will dawn,

And you’ll live forever beyond the grave.
