A short funeral poem ideal for either a religious or non-religious funeral service, about loving memories lasting forever.
The rain may wash my pain away
The wind may dry my tears
The Summer sun may heal my heart
And time subdue my fears
But nothing in the world below
Or in the Heavens above
Will ever take away
The precious memory of your love.
