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, the song 

The good life I lived while I was strong.

Continue my heritage, I'm counting on you 

Keep smiling and surely the sun will shine through. 

My mind is at ease, my soul is at rest

Remembering all, how I truly was blessed.

Continue traditions, no matter how small

Go on with your life, don't worry about falls.

I miss you all dearly, so keep up your chin

Until the day comes we're together again.
