THE EMPTY CHAIR At the table there is an empty chair Reserved for a loved one who cannot be there Every thought makes us want to cry We leave it there because we cannot say goodbye Your laughter used to make us smile Although it's forever, we hope its just a while Though your leaving tore our world apart You will forever live on inside our heart. At the table there is an empty chair Still occupied, though there's nobody there Everyday we reset your place We know you won't need it, but just in case. Your love for life was clear to see You were the very best of company Memories we will cherish and forever hold Now a beautiful angel with your wings tipped with gold. Poem by Robin Grigsby
