Old friends, and memories did I seek.
My body frail I still don't fret.
Joys of my past are bigger yet.
The distance is too long.
My life runs short, I've not much time,
Of this I am not wrong.
I gather all of you.
To one day meet and see once more
That what we had was TRUE!
But yours are not, don't fret.
Instead embrace each other still
And my purpose will be met.
Laugh loud, live long, don't think of me.
I'm watching from above, you see,
I too am chuckling endlessly.
Your thoughts, your jokes, your prayers.
When one recalls, one laughs, me too!!!
Don't forget, I was there!!!
Don't let the years and distance fade
The love we thought we once had lost,
The memories we've made.
I'm where I need to be.
His eye is on my sparrows.
And I know He smiles at me.
