Passed On

Passed On

 

I knew he was not there

But I had gone along

To the place they’d prepared

That cloudy morning long

 

Everyone there was somber

At the special place

Where a bit of Earth was moved

And covered there that day

 

Men in suits arranged

The flowers there beside

With the family all waiting there

To say their sad goodbyes

 

I had some things to say

To the man that wasn’t there

But he was gone that day

Beyond the Earth prepared

 

My silence was temporary

As I whispered there some words

He was gone that day

But I felt that he had heard
