Irene Kathleen Owen

When I’m Gone
In Loving Memory of
When I come to the end of my journey
And I travel my last weary mile
Just forget if you can, that I ever frowned
And remember only the smile.
Forgive unkind words I have spoken
Remember some good I have done
Forget that I ever had heartache
And remember only our fun.
Forget that I've stumbled and fumbled
And sometimes fell by the way
Remember I have fought some hard battles
but had you at the close of my day.
Do not grieve for my going
I would not have you sad this day
But in time gather some flowers
And remember the place where I lay.
Perhaps in the shade of evening
When the sun paints the sky in the west
Come stand for a few moments above me
Remembering only the best.
