Memory for the Departed
Life is but a dimming candle
That we grasp without a handle.
Soon our light will fade away
And we won't see night or day.
But you must keep in your heart
The memories that will never part.
Love and thoughts of the departed
And with thoughts we are bombarded.
And though this person soon must die,
They'll be there in heaven and sky.
This is for the grieving people
To try to make life more simple.
The thought of them you'll always see
And they will last in your memory.
