IN THAT OLD BY AND BY * A POEM *

There by the river by that big oak tree,when it comes time to bury me………..
dress me in my working clothes for that’s how I lived my life.
Just me and my children and my loving wife,
taught me kindness not  hatefulness and constant strife

Down by the gully where we first did meet……….
walking down that hill is where I became complete.
Not time for excuses not time for sad goodbyes,
moving toward heaven I’ll still see your eyes.

It’s my son’s and daughters that held my head so high……….
that God did bless me in this life.
And that he did keep me strong straight and true,
giving me such wonderful gifts that included  you.

There by the river by that big oak tree,when it comes time to bury me………..
dress me in my working clothes for that’s how I lived my life.
Sweet,strong n true Leslie  please don’t hang your head and cry,
just you remember we’ll see each other once again …come by and by.

Thank you

DL
