Funerals

I went to a Funeral

I went to a funeral the other day…

Something strange was at play

Everyone was smiling I saw

Even down to the distant in-law

What could account for this behavior

Didn’t someone just meet their maker?

Memories of a life well spent

Could not darken this event

Fabulous stories and pictures all revealed

Events and celebrations of a life well heeled

Not of money but of love of family and friends

Like the Love from above that just never ends.

They were celebrating the continuation of a life

Which was now surpassing its final strife.
