A Dear One Gone Home

Today the birds are singing

Gaily in the trees

A little cloud is floating

Gently on the breeze.

Today things look the same

As they did yesterday

But many hearts are saddened

For a dear one gone away.

Dear one, the tears you shed today

Are falling selfishly

For your dear one is home with God

And shall forever be.

She walks now on streets of gold

With friends gone on before

Feasting on the tree of life

That will bear forever more.
