 Penniluck's legacy

It`s Not Goodbye.


I watched them standing by your grave
Your young son said a prayer.
I felt so very proud of you
And knew that you were there.
I do not mean beneath the earth
I mean you stood close by
Straight and tall with sparkling eyes
And said `It`s not goodbye`.

Your dear wife looked very sad
I wished that she could see
That you were standing by her side
Where you will always be.
One day when the tears have gone
When sadness leaves her eye
I`ll tell her how you smiled at me
And said `It`s not goodbye.`
