In Waiting

You are gone from us But we are never alone. We gather here now To lay down your stone. One of remembrance One to mark your resting place You will never be forgotten. Memories nothing can ever erase No one will ever forget Your sweet embrace. We can not forget Your shining face. The path of White Light Came to bring you home We listen for your voice Descending from the whispering dome. ‘Twas not more than this Eight moons since your pass Unto the beauty unknown You have entered sweet bliss Where all shall forever last To see our King sit upon His throne. For you were to all Such sweet company The joy of your face Curls of such mahogany. We all hope to see You awaiting us some day Arms outstretched in longing On the beach of an emerald bay. We are in longing As we lay down your stone To see you again In a world He calls His own.
