The Tree at Kidder Creek
The tree that stands at Kidder Creek
Reminds us of our friend
Who was called away from us,
Her life on earth to end.
This tree so brightens all our sight
When thereupon we gaze,
It lets us know that we still live
Until our last of days.
A blossom here, a blossom there,
but quickly flowers fall;
Our friend here we remember
Was a flower that touched us all.
We gather here ‘neath Laura’s tree,
The friend who left us so
Was a beacon for all to see,
A tree that will always grow.
