Underneath The Weeping Willow Tree



As we pass another day, the flowers bloom with spring

I know how much I miss you now

as I did yesterday

tomorrow will be just the same



Your memory cherished with every thought I bring

you come up on my mind and take it away

leaving a heartless shell for the mind to cling

though the body left you, the heart with you…decided to stay



Please bury me proper when my time is all done

in the shade underneath the small weeping willow tree

on that day make it my final resting-place this earth

please return my heart to the grave give it back to me



You know my love that this day is very close

for the absent heart has trouble living when soul is dead

yet, I wish you well peace joy and happiness most

of all remember me love, do not let a single tear be shed
