Analysis of Goodbye - Tribute To My Aunt Penny
Goodbye - A Tribute to My Aunt Penny
As God's greatest gift
Become life's greatest sorrow
Today's precious moment
Turn into tears of tomorrow
But while our hearts grow heavy
Grief-stricken and weary
We know that with time
The dark skies will be clearing
as Heavens gates
Welcome a familiar face
God's glorious light will forever shine upon you
And as your ashes rest peacefully here on earth
Your soul will live eternally
In an angelic re-birth
Aunt Penny i miss you
I still tear at the sound of your name
But I take solace in knowing
That one day we will meet again
I know that you are watching over me
From your place up in the clouds
My heart is still healing
With each night a new day
I know that you are with me
Guiding each step i take
And I can only hope that what you see
That my life will make you proud.
