The rain fell over the dead sons grave Soaking into the ground Falling over the tombstone That read beloved son forever missed forever loved Dark clouds formed bringing more rain
Trees dipped over the grave The grave was soaked the ground wet with tears Mothers tried to stop the tears from falling on the grave and tombstone All they could do was ask why him, why now?
The rain dripped from the trees leaves on their weary heads Hanging their heads as they cried their last tears Many people came and go so many people come and go Leave their mark on the world Leave their life choices
Beloved son beloved husband beloved man So many tears are cried for you so many tears are shed for you Please come back to us Please come back to us Please come back to me
Forgotten over the years Forgotten love over the years Forgotten man over the years So many things done with So many things left unsaid
Many things not said to him Many things not told to him What was to happen to him No more tears to cry No more tears left to cry for the beloved son
Let life go one without him Let the world go one without him Be kind to him Be gentle to him
No more tears left to cry over the sons grave No more tears left to cry Nothing more to say to him Nothing wanted to say to him Just be one with the earth
Let the earth guide you
Years later kids come to the grave Nothing to say nothing to say Nothing ever told to him Nothing whispered in the grave Touching the tombstone
The sister comes tears fall onto the tombstone Hanging their heads crying together Many things left to say the their brother Many things left to say their brother Many untold things to tell to their brother
Going on Going on Going on
Gone for now Gone into the mist of time Be well beloved son beloved brother

Perhaps a more varied wording would have benefited this poem, very good though. |

Well guessed what this poem did make me cry you know God give special people in our lifes and he takes them a way, but by his grace we will see them one day,nice really really nice, I hope you did.nt mind but here's a little poem I done for my Father, Mother and Brother has passed it's called How Sweet It Is
I woke up one morning and I heard Lord calling,
Calling for me, for me to come home.
For there in a distance I saw my Lord Jesus,
With nail scared hands and a robe white as snow.
How sweet it must be up there in Heaven,
Were all our friends and love ones have gone?
No fears, no tears, no pain or no sorrows,
How sweet it is to be going home.
Willie Sidney Conrad Joyner
you do have a gift from God always use that I know you will.
