Taylor- the Great Tailor

You were a bright spark That lit in the darkness You touched so many hearts With your gentle kindness A name so important it shan’t be forgotten Poetry skills that that no other possesses Popularity and fame long gotten An imprint of honor that truly impresses A lovable trait made for you only Known everywhere and remembered for ever Now that the world is without you lonely It leaves your work with us Still tender Maybe your body and life are gone Like birds that have now flown But your soul and love are to us one We shall grow a flower for your every heartbeat We shall cry bitter tears of sadness Yet we know less than few can beat The quintessence of your creative madness Though our hearts are broken into two We know God never makes mistakes For death can claim no victory You will not have to walk alone Though shadow all around Weary, tired and worn Your life here may have passed away But eternity will never cease May angels walk beside you Toward forever peace In heaven there’s no sadness No more hurting No more tears will fill your day God wipes it all away John Taylor, the great tailor For the love you seamed and tailored Our long lasting love Will fly next to you wherever you go As a pure white dove The trees of love you planted here Will never die God be with you, until we meet again Past the sunset in the sky
