After The Funeral Poem by Alison Gaff

So now the family and friends are gone
And you are on your own
Remember that we all still care
So just pick up the phone

If your feeling down and sad
Like the world is closing in
Remember all the happy times
And let your true heart sing

Remember all the good times
And don't dwell on the bad
Remember all the laughter
And for that you must be glad

Remember you have friends close by
Who'll cheer you when your down
Remember it's OK to cry
But not too much or you'll drown

It's not that friends stop caring
But they don't know what to say
So encourage them to talk of.......
It may help to ease the pain away

Remember all the happy times
And hold them in your heart
I know it will not bring them back
But may be its a start.
