To August

Like a leaf falls from a green tree
You left this world to be
You left on a sunny may day
The last of may, for you anyway

Standing here outside this chapel
With your family and friends,
Yes you had a couple
I wonder if this gap ever mends

This day is such a lovely one
The sun so nice and warm
The wind so fresh and fine
The birds so vivid and divine
No insect can ever do you harm
Cause this is the day but you are gone

It may sound like such a cheap clichee
But its just my thought; je me répète
I felt the tears stream down my face
And all I could do is wonder in this place
Why I have never got to know you any better?
