For Aunt Delva
Tell Me Your Story
August 21, 2012
Someday when I cross over
To that great Someplace Somewhere
I want to find you waiting
In your hard-earned glory there.
Your life was full of sadness
And tragedy and woe.
Your life was full of troubles,
How much I do not know.
But now all that is over
And now your ears can hear
And now your soul is mended
And now your mind is clear.
I want to know your story -
The life you had to bear -
When I cross over someday
To that great Someplace Somewhere.
