Perhaps you sent a lovely card, Or sat quietly in a chair
Perhaps you sent a floral piece If so we saw it there.
Perhaps you said the nicest words, As any friend could say;
Perhaps you were not there at all, Just thought of us that day.
Whatever you did to console our hearts, We thank you so much whatever the part.

When Day Is Done
I'd like the memory of me to be a happy one. I'd like to leave an afterglow of smiles. When day is done. I'd like to leave an echo Whispering softly down the wa_vs Of happy times, and laughing times And bright and sunny days. I'd like the tears of those who grieve To dry before the sun Of happy memories /leave behind When day is done.
