A Life Lived Is a Life Loved By You
A life lived is a life loved by you.
Always saying to be and to do.
Be courageous and strong.
Be happy in a life that’s long.
Long with days of joy.
For every girl and boy.
Teaching, encouraging, generous, and kind.
Growing great wisdom in a youth’s young mind.
You taught me well and showed me to be brave.
Those memories tucked in my heart forever to be saved.
Memories of laughter, love, and generosity.
Teaching me greatness and humility.
Words of encouragement and kindness from your heart.
Reminding me I cannot finish anything without a start.
Forever in my heart you will be.
Memories in my mind I will always see.
So many things to say, so much I can’t do.
But I’ll always remember a life lived is a life loved by you.
For LaFaye
