six-souls <br />at the bottom of an Oklahoma lake; <br />forty-three plus years <br />and never a wake. <br />only guesses <br />and all were wrong, <br />no one sang any of them <br />their final sad-song- <br />let us send them now <br />on their way, <br />and let them have their eternal rest <br />finally, this very day- <br />a 50 chevy <br />a 69 camaro, <br />at last troubled families <br />are able to let go- <br />let the stories <br />be told, <br />settle the worries <br />of old- <br />no illusion <br />is real, <br />until the facts are found <br />that we all feel- <br />too young <br />they died, <br />even though <br />so many hoped and tried- <br />truth is truth <br />for even the young and old, <br />sooner or later <br />must let go of their souls- <br />no one knows <br />for certain why, <br />the only reality is <br />every one eventually does die- <br />for these six souls <br />are finally blest, <br />as their mysterious disappearance <br />is at long last laid to rest- <br />God may your mercy <br />now shine, <br />on those who have waited for an answer <br />such a long, long time-<br /><br />Smoky Hoss<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/at-last-a-goodbye/
