FAye sealand

A big family reunion

To celebrate her life conclusion

We said farewell in January

A month ago we were so merry

In her house remains the decorations

A reminder of the celebration

Family gathered near and far

On top of the tree resides a star

That memory seems so very distant

Grief is a feeling so persistent

Tear stream down my swollen face

I reminisce about our last embrace

I say goodbye; they close the casket

We leave after we grab our jackets

The car ride home is eerily silent

The loss we felt was awfully giant

A big family reunion
