"Precious Note"


My breaths are numbered

and I know not the day,

so as you slumber

I let my heart convey

...A precious note

penned just for you.
Sentiments to linger

when my time is through.

I can't live forever,

but this note I will leave

to offer you comfort

when your heart wants to grieve.

The note contains wisdom

and speaks words of love.

May it be a gift

of guidance from above.


Please keep this tradition
and pass the note on
so our grandkids will know us
long after we're gone.


Now open this note

with the peace of mind

that my memory remains
though I left you behind.
