IN MENTORTAM

In sad but loving remembrance of my
dear mother, Priscilla Moore, who died
June 4, 1919:
Is there a sorrow greater than this,
knowing six months ago 1 pressed
my last kiss;
Six sad months 18th all their change,
Since death babe us part
But my dear mother, with all the
changes it cannot take you from
my heart
l do not know the pain she bore, I
only know she passed away and could
rot say goodbye.
Oh. dear Blessed Lord. what a
weight OF sorrow must 1 the lonely
one bear. the silent room, the empty
bed and the lonely vacant chair
Dearest mother how 1 miss you the
world will never know. If tears and
prayers could only bring you home
you would have been here long ago.
Her memory is as dear today b
AS in the hour she passed away; i
I did my best, God only knows &
To save her lifeI could not do.
I think of you, dear mother, in silence
Few eyes are there that can see me
weep,
But many a silent tear I shed when
others are asleep.
