Dear Anna is gone, but not forgotten Never will her memory fade, Sweetest thoughts shall ever linger Around the grave where she is laid. The Golden gates were open, A gentle voice said come And with a farewell unspoken, She calmly entered home. It was sad to part with Anna, O' so sad to see her die, But we'll try and meet her some sweet Day by and by. |
