Her aged, angel face,
Lined with heaven’s grace,
Gazed sadly at her love
Who lay asleep
In his pain so deep.
A lifetime of memories,
Photos of the mind,
Left her sad eyes Mournful and blind
With fearful tears
Which trickled o’er years
And through the skies.
No words came;
So, her anguish went untold,
But when an unspeakable groan
Escaped her soul
Her needs by heaven were known.
We clasp her close,
While unseen hosts
Held her tender and near.
Gently they bound her again
To him who is her life’s cheer.
And so she found peace
And without a bitter trace,
A loving smile gave sweet grace
To her aged, angel face.
