Michael Keenan - Enjoying life

We laughed, we cried
We struggled and tried
Always there for each other
We had children three
We raised tenderly
Showing respect for each other.

Picnics in parks
Nice long walks
Some ways we spent our time
All done together
Whatever the weather
It really was sublime

Children got older
And certainly bolder
Flew the nest and moved away
But now they think
There could be a link
And the same will happen to them one day

When we are gone
and life is done
Lets hope it wasn't in vain
You know the rest
We were happy together its plain.
