As We Celebrate Your Life©

By Felina Silver Robinson

Bothered by your silence

I think of words to say

But nothing comes to mind

Because you’re bluer than this day

The cheer I’m use to seeing

Seems to have gone astray

On any other day

I would just look the other way

But today

You should be happy

As we celebrate your life

With so much to look back on

Even more going forward

Everyone will come from miles around

To honor all that you’ve done

All that you’ve become

So please

Throw away your frown

Put your smile back on

We’ll put your favorite song on

And we’ll dance the night away

Hence, your silence will become a thing of the past

But your memories will surely last

So come and let’s have a blast
