Tears that Never Dry
No greater pain can parents bear
Than passing from life their child
No greater grief, no reasons why
Their broken hearts scream, "It isn't right!"
For his path to end and leave behind
Tears that never dry
With grief they could hardly bear
God directs their footsteps on
As memories reflected
Memories shared
They laugh and cry
Tears that never dry
God comforts their hearts
Assuring one day
reunion with their son
For knowing Heaven is his home
They cling to precious memories
And cry happy
Tears that never dry
Their beloved has departed to his heavenly home
Where God and angels reside
Comfort and peace there abide
With pain no more
His tears God shall dry

May God Himself comfort you and grant you His peace. Permission is granted to share this poem with friends and family who have suffered the loss of a loved one.
