Will Remain

I come from roots proud and strong 
Some still living some are gone
But never will their just be 
An empty space on that tree
Roots made strong and proud 
Some thought of by a cloud
Always remembering them once here
Never forgotten always near
Written in ink a loved ones name
The family tree will remain
In the open for all to see
All the names that make are tree
Time will pass and others their will be 
Adding there names to the family tree
When my time has passed and i am gone
The family tree will still go on
