Remembering

 
Born during the depth of the depression
But living in a home that had so much joy
Wearing clothing that wasn’t very stylish
No money to buy even the cheapest toy

God saw us through that life of despair
That depression was finally over and done
A great war erupted and so work was good
We worked together and the war was won

Although things were so much better for us
We no longer saw days with nothing to eat
We had a feeling that had kept us together
I loved the picnics when we all would meet

Sadly today I am the only one that is living
Everyone else has gone to reach their reward
I know I will see them all again one sweet day
When together we will be living with the Lord
