WIDOW’S LAMENT When I waken in the morning And see your unused bed. I'm reminded I’ve outlived you Just as you always said. It’s good your suffering’s over. Who could wish you back? Yet - — facing life alone Is a skill I seem to lack. So, there'll have to be some changes; Like, I'll move your favorite chair, Just to rid me of the feeling That you're sitting there. And I'm going to keep quite busy For "life goes on," it's true; But I'll start and end each day Missing you missing you. Your Wife and Children IN LOVING MEMORY in memory of Garry Wolfenbarger who passed aw ay four years ago February 9th. The joys we shared together are the memories we hold dear and the happiness you gave us keep you forever near.
