WITH LOVE WE REMEMBER

-TED-EDWARD MULLEN

1928 - 2013

THE LAST FAREWELL

Dear friends I go, but do not weep,I’ve lived my life so full, so deep,

Throughout my life, I gave my best,I earned my keep, I’ve earned my rest.

I never tried to be great or grand,I tried to be a helping hand.

If I helped in a team, If I helped on my own, I was more than repaid, by good friends I have known.

And if I went the extra mile, I did it with pleasure,It was all worth while.

If I brightened your path, then let it be a small contribution,From my loved ones and me.

But mostly I cherished the family I knew,In a bond never ending, so precious, so true.

Now sadly I leave you and travel alone, Through the mystic veil, to the great unknown.

With such beautiful memories that forever will be,The way that I hope you’ll remember me.

TIME OF REFLECTION

POEMThe Lake Isle of Innisfree

COMMITTAL

THE LAKE ISLE OF INNISFREE

I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree, And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made:

Nine bean-rows will I have there, a hive for the honey-bee; And live alone in the bee-loud glade.

And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow, Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;

There midnight's all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow, And evening full of the linnet's wings.

I will arise and go now, for always night and day I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;

While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements grey, I hear it in the deep heart's core.
