TRACY BATES
Whatever else we fail to do,
We never fail to think of you.
It doesn’t take a special day to call you to our mind,
A day without a thought of you is very hard to find.
You never failed to do your best, your heart was true and tender,
You simply lived for those you loved and those you loved remember.
You gave us all you had to give, gifts both great and small,
But most of all you gave us love, the greatest gift of all.
Memories are a gift to treasure,
Mine of you will last forever
No passing of time can take them away.
A thousand words won’t bring you back, I know because I’ve tried,
Neither will a million tears, I know because I’ve cried.
No matter how life changes,
no matter what I do,
A special place inside my heart,
Is set aside for you.
We don't ask for miracles,
But today just one will do;
To leave the door wide open,
And see you walk right through.
We would wrap our arms around you,
And kiss your smiling face,
For you were very special,
Who no one can replace.
Love you forever xxxxxxxxx
