Life, Love, and Wisdom By Maggie Copley

Time tried and tested him,

And life was sometimes cruel.

He knew the pain of grief

But it was no match for his faith.

His heart was free of malice – his demeanor kind.

He felt love for all God’s creatures.

His gentleness was unequal to

Such a giant frame.

He was special; so very, very special.

Spirited wisdom, was he.

Each new day was his beginning of time.

Hope for tomorrow; was a joyful glint,

in his tired, aged, eyes today.

He was so good his very soul could

touch a life and change it forever.

A man of few words, but such a powerful message.

Because he was apart of it; life was sweeter and dearer.

He was life, love and wisdom.
