Subject: RE: BS: Not such a happy birthday to me
Each time we as a family attended a funeral we stand together and hold hands. Each time one of us felt an emotional fall the hands on either side would squeeze passing us their strength. And so it was we supported each other without the world knowing our business.
Holding hands
They are holding hands and watching
As we watch her slip away
She walks to them and smiles
And takes their hands today.
We are holding hands and watching
As we watch her on her way
Our hands they squeeze and strengthen
To help us through the day
And as we're getting older
Hands one by one let go
But they are holding hands and watching
To strengthen us below.
