When Memorial Day comes
I visit the graves,
Of family that came
Before and passed on
It’s a strange,
This I know
But still it is true
In the cemeteries
I feel a peace
Unknown other places
I’ve thought and pondered
The cause of this peace
This strange situation
I find myself in
I believe I have come
To a brief explanation
The cause of the peace,
Whispers of the Past
While sitting in front
Of a loved ones tombstone,
The wind gently blows,
A whisper of the past
Those buried below
And lying in peace
Reveal to me a secret
“We made it” they whisper
“and so you can too,
Just hold up your head
And have faith in the truth
Don’t forget what we did
To give you what you have
And live so that you
Can pass something on
To the future”
This secret they whisper
Gives me faith
In where I come from
And the point I am at
And where I can head
As the future comes.
So in the cemetery,
The resting place of
Those gone before
I gain peace
From the message shared
From Whispers of the Past
