Cry Not for Me

Where to from here
Time is in fifth gear
Death seems so near

Just one last glass of
cherry wine
Pain and strife soon
to be no longer mine

Young to old
I've lived it bold
all good things
must come to an
end
So now I'm about to
join my ancient kin

Tranquility, solitude,
silence forever to be,
bury me under that
old oak tree

Leave a red rose at my
head and think often of
me as alive not dead

Cry not for me, for
a good life I've had
for urchin boy
…that is!
