Money was no object,
She had a wealthy dad
And when he kicked the bucket,
He left her all he had.
...
There she goes, our dearest friend.
As all good things come to an end,
Her life on earth is over now
And we must carry on somehow,
...
I used to tell my friends at school
Our garden had a swimming pool
And flowers like they'd never seen,
A fountain and a bowling green,
...
I know they’re all the fashion
And they’re worn by Britney Spears,
But you and her are different
Both in size and, sadly, years.
...
A chip fell in love with a small piece of cod,
It felt really normal and not a bit odd
And though they both knew they had not long to live,
Both knew they had love unbridled to give.
...
Raindrops, tears from heaven,
Fell as if they knew.
Against a sky of turmoil
A lonesome seagull flew.
...
There's a little railway station
In the countryside near here
And a little old steam engine
Stops there just one day each year
...
You look as though you're in a restful sleep,
Serene, content and in a world of dreams.
And I don't know if I should smile or weep
For death should be much sadder than it seems.
...
I looked up from my paper
For I'm sure I felt her stare,
Our eyes met and they locked and
Something mystic filled the air.
...
I've just been out on one my walks
And was thinking about dandelion stalks!
When I was young they were always tall
...
