PRETTY PEARL'S
Pretty pearls around her slim neck
in irrodiscent hue
a gft from a special love
back in ninteen thirty two
She wore them at their wedding
in ninteen thirty three
they were a sight, so dazzling white
a wonderous thing to see
She wore them once again
t'was the year ninteen thirty four
when she gave birth to their little boy
they couldn't ask for more
She wore them once again
in nineteen thirty five
a little girl came to bless them
and how their love did thrive
On each special occasion
she'd wear the pearl's again
just to show him, that he was still her special love
as he had always been
She wore the pearls through out the yearss
in happy times and sad
she kept them in a velvet box
with special jewelry that she had
She wore them on a trip to Mexico
for they'd been married fifty years
and he gave her a ring to match
on the last night they were there
So these pearls were getting older
yellowed now with age
she'd hold thm gently to her breast
for love of them, there was no gage
Now the years just slowly slipped on by
now they had grown so old
now her wrinkles hands trembled some
and seemed always cold
She gently slipped away one nigtt
quietly to fly to heaven's shore
the glidtrning pearls around her nrck
to wear forevermore
And as he kissed her one last time
he knew, would not be long
that he'd be flying up to her
their love still bright and strong
For he would always love her
she'd stay in his heart where she belonged
and as he gently held her hand
he sang their farewell song
