POEM

Daddy, are you gone forever

To a land so bright and fair

While your children weep unstopping?

Can you hear us? Are you there?

God will keep you, Daddy dear,

Till we greet by and by.

For a moment is our sorrow,

Joy forever in the sky,

Oh, how bravely did you leave us

Sailing on and far.

How our hearts did break within us

At the thought forever more.
