JUNE LUNDHOLM





WHEN I WAS A YOUNG AND COURTING GIRL
OUT WALKING WITH MY BEAU
HE SLIPPED BEHIND A CLIFF'S EDGE
BUT I WALKED ON
THINKING HIM PLAYING THE FOOL
BUT HE DIDN'T APPEAR
I WILL NOT BE PART OF HIS JOKE
I THOUGHT
I WILL WAIT HIM OUT
OR SHOULD I WALK ON AND LEAVE HIM
FOR LOVE'S BURDENS WERE MAKING THEIR DEMANDS
I COULD WALK ON AND BE FREE
BUT SUCH FREEDOM I DID NOT WANT
SO BEING LONELY I SOUGHT HIM OUT
AND FOUND HIM TRULY FALLEN
AND CLINGING TO A TREE
A SILLY THING
BUT ONE THAT GRADUALLY BECAME
A PART OF FAMILY HISTORY
OF EYES ROLLED TO THE HEAVENS
OH NO NOT THAT STORY AGAIN
WE WED
AND HAD FULL YEARS
OF HOME OF CHILDREN OF LOVE
HE LEFT TOO SOON
NO MATTER HOW MANY WERE THE YEARS BY CALENDAR
HE WALKED TO LIFE'S EDGE
AND LEFT TOO SOON
NOW I HAVE GONE TO LIFE'S EDGE AND BEYOND
BUT WEEP NOT FOR ME
FOR HE MET ME ON MY DYING
I TOLD HIM
THE CHILDREN ARE WELL
I KNOW HE SAID
I MISSED YOU
I KNOW HE SAID
L LOVE YOU STILL
I KNOW HE SAID
I LOVE YOU TOO
AND SO DOES JESUS
WELCOME HOME
