the Hospice
'THE HOSPICE'
As he lay there in the hospice thinking his final thoughts,
Had he had a good life, or had it been just allright,
No matter how it had been his final hours were here,
Would anyone come to see him as death was really near,
He would rather see them right now, just to hold his hand.
Than them saying things so shallow at his funeral,
So go there now and see him, it will help him move along,
Help him to the next world help him to be strong,
People want to see you before they pass away,
So go and hold his hand now before he goes away!
Say nice things at his funeral!
But dont forget this thing! at that time it will be to late for him to comprehend!
