Melva Painter Memoriam
As I lie here in bed,
Just my pups and me,
I gradually drift into sleep while
Whispering the name of thee.
Dark is fast approaching,
So I hope and pray to see,
Tucked inside an angel's wing, I
Whisper the name of thee.
Pictures begin to show,
Memories gradually flow,
It is you I see, from head to toe,
Just as if you did not go.
Now the light begins to fade,
And the journey has been spent,
I slowly awaken safe and sound,
As my love has just been sent.
Happy First Birthday in Heaven, Mee-Maw
I miss you every second
of every minute
of every hour of every day.
Diane
