Recessional

Perhaps you sent a lovely card or sat quietly in a chair.Perhaps you sent a floral piece If so, we saw it there.

Perhaps you spoke the kindest words as any friend could say.Perhaps you were not there at all just thought of us on that day.

Whatever you did to console our hearts, We Thank You, Whatever

At Ease At Ease At EaseHe washed me over with peaceDipping my soul in serenity.

Drowning out my painMaking my worries obscure

And soon the calm was my only cureHe led me to meet

The peace I’ve longed to reach,And I promised no tears were shed

Proud to be done searching for life’s peakI followed as he led

No need to cry no need to weepAlways remember I am at ease

Because when my body was ready to sleepHe laid me down in a sea of peace.

We love you , Pop Pop!By: Assata M. Wilson
