A period in time, it begins with a breath, <br />Memories remain, for all who knew, <br />A life we knew, but never gone, <br />To all who loved, it goes beyond death, <br /> <br />A life of experience, both joy and pain, <br />A life’s creation, a gift to all <br />A life to cherish, designed by God, <br />A life not forgotten, it will always remain, <br /> <br />In those who loved, in those it touched. <br />A wonderful life, one never to forget, <br />A life that gave, to all who shared, <br />Memories of love, for the bodies it clutched. <br /> <br />To help us through, a time of sorrow, <br />To give us strength, to continue the journey <br />To be joyous in life, and create the memories, <br />For those remaining, in the life of tomorrow.<br /><br />B.J.
