My Great Grandmother
The sadness comes to encompass us all.
The leaves on all the trees begin to fall.
Tears stream down from reddened eyes,
As friends and family say their goodbyes.

Joyous laughter through memories found.
Bringing smiles to those gathered round.
Her smile is bright,
As the sun shines the first light.
Her time was right,
As her life reached a new height.

Her body lies sleeping,
While those around her are weeping.
Her pain is no more,
Her mind will soar,
When Jehovah calls her name
Her life's breath will claim.

For now she lies there
Without a care
We will meet again at another time,
When no more will there be hate and death
