Just down the road....around he bend,
Stands a country church that neighborsfaithfully attend.
It has seen better days, but standsstaunch and strong;
This haven of worship for those whobelong.
To this pace where feelings of fellow-ship abound,
Church going folks come from milesaround,
They have been friends and neighborsfor many years,
And for each other's loved ones, theyhave all shed tears.
There's a cemetery nearby with markersold,
Every one of them, has a story untold.
The stones lie silent... they have nothingto say;
They just listen politely when people kneelto pray.
Happy times, however, have been therule;
Such weddings and events for kids inschool.
Pot luck suppers and Bingo games;
Raffle tickets and drawings of names.
That old church and happiness make aperfect blend,
Just down the road......around the bend.
THERE WILL NOT BE MORE TIMETOMORROW !!!!!!
