Mark Ward Poet Rhyme

Our Bertie

You said goodbye to me today,
You cried for me and held me tight.
I tried to tell you it’s ok,
I tried to stay but couldn’t fight.
You gave me love, looked after me,
You we’re always there my family.
But now I’m gone I am at peace,
My pain and suffering now has ceased.
So don’t be sad and do not cry,
For now I’m running above the sky.
In fields of green with daffodils,
Down the dales and over the hills.
