some memories of a dear friend who left too soon

A candle went dim tonight

A candle went dim tonight,
It flickerd then it died,
Not many noticed
As in their lives they rushed by

Consumed by many things,
Hardly a tear was cried,
Save for one who thought
Of kindness given in a rakish grin,
The night that candle died.

Acepting arms held out from on high
Arms that said welcome son
Come sit by me your pain has gone
The night that candle died.
