Treasured thoughts of one so dear
Often bring silent tear;
Thoughts return to scenes long past
Time rolls on, but memories last.
No one knows the silent heartache,
Only those who have such can tell
OF the grief that is borne in silence
For the one that loved so well.
Days of sadness still come over me,
Hidden tears so often flow;
Memory keeps you always near me,
Though you left me eight years ago.
I often sit and think of you
When l am all alone,
For memory is the only friend
That grief can call its own.
The angels came in silent tread
And bore him on the wings OF love
To that sweet, heavenly home above.
