Barb is still with me in my heart and soul
September 18 2022
(With Barb)
By Franklin Price

It's the eighteenth of September
The year is twenty twenty-two
I'm on a River Cruise in Europe
With early morning thoughts of you
Eight long months have passed us by
Since the good Lord took you home
You'll always be within my heart
Where ever in the world I roam.
I felt you as we walked upon
The lands of persons' past
Of ancestors you spoke about
I've brought you here at last
To Germany and Hungary
To Slovakia we went
In Austria we hiked around
To Vienna we were sent
Discovered many places
That we only heard about
Through my eyes you saw them
You are with me there's no doubt
The churches and the castles
The cobbled streets were not a bore
Towns were here a thousand years
Some of them for many more
Tomorrow we will end this cruise
And return to present days
Kings and queens of days gone by
Will go back into the haze
This week we will be back again
To the house that is our home
With memories and photographs
Of castles and cathedral domes
