Mausoleum

Dead end Cemetary plots Loved ones hold near Treasuries of memories Of that person sweetly and dear I cannot let go of him so near He was a special gent Always said "How Do You Do?" no matter where he went Sleeping silently,my friend In this Mausoleum White Photographs and articles about It still brings upon me, a little weep of tear Again..it is clear I cannot let go of him so near The congragation sang his hymn And Teachers,dedicated to him.. His own statue and a newly refurbished gym Never A person to shy away friends His philosophy stated: OUR SPIRIT NEVER TRULY ENDS It is pouring rain today We bury him in Red,White,and Blue Because He would have wanted it that way Our family is saying a Goodbye to him in Here It is easy to refrain in darkest serenity Plain We cannot let go of him for he is still near Mothers Fathers Distant relatives I see Reflect on this Simple but gentle soul Lying in State that I view before me Our loss at such a cost is not a trivial matter When a person as young as he was free Has left for a better Haven All we can do is let him climb up Upon the limb of Calvary's lone Tree Say these last words and close the Mausoleum Gate WE SHALL BE AGAIN IN HEAVEN'S LIFETIME..ETERNITY CAN SURELY WAIT!
