Mother passes, daughter weeps.
We come, we sit, we smile, we greet.
Try to act like something's wrong.
Read a psalm and sing a song.
Hang our heads down low and heavy,
Wait an hour and then get ready,
To leave, because we do not bear
The pain the daughter cannot share.
I wrote this after coming home from a funeral that was very cordial.
