How Can We Say Thank You? ? ? Poem by William Lindenmuth

How can we appreciate
All that you have done
You have taken the spirit of many
Bringing us together as one
How does this ship keep sailing
Through storms and unruly tides
Filled with many emotions
many heart filled rides


in our hearts we know this
For its all meant to be
To us you’re here forever
A living legacy

You reap what you sow
In a life time
With little time for reflection
You breathe and you grow
Travelling in a worldly direction
With the wisdom of the ages
And a heart meant to advise
You have helped so many sunken souls
Helping them to rise

In our hearts we know this
For its all meant to be
To us you’re here forever
A living legacy

We have made some journeys together
And they lead us to this place
With a wondrous sense of closure
That no heart can replace
We share your smiles and greetings
Carried deep within the heart
goodbyes won’t be an option
in the midst of a brand new start

In our hearts we know this
For its all meant to be
To us you’re here forever
A living legacy

How can we say thank you?
When our hearts will not let go
We will hold on to sweet memories
Allowing our feelings to show
We have taken all you have given us
With all respect you have earned
As we follow in your footsteps
through the lessons we have learned

for you will never leave us
just like the passing rain
friends live on forever
forever once again …………repeat and fade


Thank you Mrs Lee! ! ! ! ! ! !
