A PAGE FROM YESTERDAY


  Memories, a window to our past, pictures of special 
  Times,
  Friends' we once knew, where are they now, somewhere.

  There are those no longer among us, their story Is 
  Written,
  A book closed, put away on a shelf but forever cherished.

  We thought as children that life was magic and wishes,

  Teenagers having fun trying to figure out where we were 
  Going.

  We were fortunate to have been given such friends' back 
  In time,
  Lucky If we are still blessed with their presence today.

  We take a page from yesterday, off comes that book from 
  Its place,
  Remember that friend In our heart that never disappears, 
  That face.

  A voice that was once heard, a smile, now an echo,  
  Forever A thought,
  Well! today some of those faces, those voices, and a 
  Smile Remembered
  Are here to share a night, a memory and a page again 
  Written, A book.
