Four and Fifty Years Ago

Four and fifty Years Ago
By Franklin Price
11/21/2023

Four and fifty years ago
This day we swore our vows
To be together 'til we passed
No matter what, the wheres, the hows

Cancer and covid struck you down
Two and twenty months ago
Christ, in all his wisdom,
Took you from that awful flow

You are still within my heart
You are forever in my mind
You are looking down upon me
Have not left me far behind

When my days are also over 
I will meet you at the gate
Then we will spend eternity
Jesus saved us for that fate
