POLLY’S SONG
Just heard of you today
Heard how he came and stole
Your life away,
Don’t know what we could have done
To save your life just begun.
On this day of pain and tears
Came the sum of all our fears
Lost to us all future years
All the dreams we held so dear.
Polly, we love you and mourn you
So much more our hearts wish we could do,
Wish we could have saved you.
Polly dear, Angel dear,
From your new life too swiftly begun
Send us all your tender blessings
Till we join you,
In the eternal life to come.
