A Poem Written by Vivian Ennis 1/23/01
Written for a close friend’s family loss
As we stand here at the funeral we may all feel a little numb inside
Then we realize there is love beyond all pride …..
We may stand here in silence or cry out loud
seeing how we wasted so much time acting so proud
we will cry and mourn a loved one lost this is true
as our hearts will feel oh so blue
While remembering the good times and the bad
those times will now seem to make us sad
thinking of things we could have done
how our lives feel they never even begun
There may be some regrets in our hearts
wishing our loved one did not depart
So many questions will go unasked
wishing to tear down our self made mask
Our hearts will be open being nothing but true
when thinking about our loved one we knew
They moved on to see our maker so real
as we hope in our hearts they will feel
Peace so divine and true
and that there will be no more pain for them too
We will wish on this very day
that love be the only thing that will come their way
