Don'T Be Grim

Goodbye my loves as my senses dim I’ve had good innings so don’t be grim Like a frozen frame your shadows hold still You reassured as my body did chill As darkness falls here enters the night distant I see a much welcomed light I am still right here you’ll feel me around So look for my signs listen for my sounds The stench of life's odour passes by I see your tears and I hear you cry For I’ll see over you as life goes on Remember the good things that we have done Upon me falls the sweetest perfume It’s not so bad as deaths toll consumes For I’ll welcome new life as I’m revived and I’ll wait for you as my spirit strives All of life's goodness comes back to me As transported to eternity Hold on to the happiness through the years We’ll meet again someday so smile my dears
