Bleak sky, grey and menacing, on this winter’s morn
Icicles and snow blanket the earth
Birds are silent showing great respect; they just bow their heads
To honour his spirit now at peace
Too young and vital to depart this world
How sad to witness his family mourn – the Angels now will take good care
To protect his ‘being’ somewhere in the universe
We will remember him fondly as we say goodbye
Our glasses we will raise as high as the sky
We will watch you being embraced and cocooned
As the Angels lift you gently into their arms
Your friends will look after your dear wife
We will share our memories today with her
Don’t worry, Daniel, we will nurture her through this journey…
