They said you were the best of the best.
They said you were so full of life.
They said you touched many a life.
They said you were loved by all the rest.
They said you died much before your time.
They came by the hundreds to see your face.
They came with loads of the loveliest flowers.
They spoke of you in such charming rhyme.
No one dared to criticise you.
No one said anything bad.
No one spoke of flaws in you.
No one was there, that was not sad.
Your mum and dad were very grieved,
Your siblings- of you were very proud.
No one was present who was not bereaved.
No one was discourteous, impolite or loud.
Oh! How I wish you’d known,
So many for you would mourn.
So many for you would mourn.
Oh! How I wish you'd heard-their words
So sweet, when you had lived.
