    THIS IS A TRIBUTE IN MEMORY OF ED,

    I'd like the memory of me
    to be a happy one.
    I'd like to leave an after glow
    of smiles when life is done.
    I'd like to leave an echo
    whispering softly down the ways,
    Of happy times and laughing times
    and bright and sunny days.
    I'd like the tears of those who grieve,
    to dry before the sun
    of happy memories
    that I leave when my life is done.
