Some times in life we truly do not know,who we will touch in life
A few days before my husband died, he did not think he had a friend in the world
Nor did I love him enough or do enough for him
I told how much he was love and needed on this earth
For his flame for life burned so hot it was brilliant to see
He smile in the hard times,listen to friends in distress
So his fire spread to many
The day of the funeral he filled up the church
Many I did not know
I received cards from people that I had not meet
Now is fire dimmed forever leaving a cold void hole in me
