A good friend she was
Would be there for me
Through ups or downs
A good friend she was.

Sitting in Church
Listening to sermons
With white patent leather shoes
A fancy dress and little white gloves

You can make all the plans you want
Doesn’t mean all will go your way
You can motivate them with your words
Doesn’t mean you will have the last say.

Older brother Sam unloaded rabbits from the hunt
A bigger rabbit than usual lay there
Little brother Ken asked why it was so big
Sam had a story to tell about the hare.

Took eating lots of healthy things
Lots of exercise
And ignoring many goodies
Including that cake
...
Playing outside all day
Eating pomegranates
Getting stains all over our shirts.

Even though
I have had some tough times in life,
I can still stop and look up at those bright yellow sunflowers
So happy in the sun towering over me;
...
I will take this life of mine
Enjoying each brand new day
I will hear the birds that sing
Smell flowers along the way.

It has been almost a year
Since you left and
I wonder where your spirit is.
Are you soaring high above us all
