The Picture
I have a pretty picture,
It hangs upon my wall.
It used to be my father's
When I was very small.
My father died very young.
I have this souvenir.
Every time I look at it
I feel as if he's near.
It's a very peaceful picture,
Beautiful to view,
And though it's very, very old
It looks as though it's new.
I have a pretty picture,
It hangs upon my wall.
It used to be my father's
When I was very small.
