A lad, noble and brave
Lies here within his grave
Leaving from his grand abode
Into battle he gallantly rode
...
Music box blaring
It's melodious rhythmic tune
Delighting my ears
Reminiscing in my chair
...
Germinating seed
Sprouting through the moist spring soil
Reaching for the sun
Life's cycle begins anew
...
Rain comes once again
Pouring from the sky above
Blurring my vision
With a bleak, maudlin spirit
...
Walking through the woods
Stumbling upon a deep stream
Brimming with minnows
Delightedly I observe
...
A dull plunk
The penny has sunk
Another slips through my hand
As at the wishing well I stand
...
A dream I dreamed last night
Bringing about a sense of delight
Of a woman as beautiful as can be
A vivid scene so plain to me
...
My beautiful you
Speaking words so true
Of understanding and love
God's gift from above
...
Slowly wasting away
Returning to his chair everyday
Cancer eating away inside
Death soon to be his bride
...
A visitor at the door today
Not much did he have to say
Just hi, hello, time to go
As my pulse starts to slow
...
