Bridge Called Love



It takes us back to brighter years,

to happier sunlit days

and to precious moments

that will be with us always.



And these fond recollections

are treasured in the heart

to bring us always close to those

from whom we had to part.



There is a bridge of memories

from earth to Heaven above...

It keeps our dear ones near us

It's the bridge that we call love.
