DONOVAN SINGS HIS EULOGY FOR THE PASSING OF HIS SCOTS – IRISH AUNT LENA

Eulogy for Aunt Lena

I sing this heartfelt Song of Farewell for you Aunt Lena . as you journey on
A long-ago scene returns to me , you and I , in a playground
You young and beautiful , as this wee lad , you cared for , that happy day

I sing for you the song which has been said to be Irish , then said to be Scottish
Well Lena , you and the Clans and Septs of our far flung wandering families
We also claim to be both … and a potent mixture it is … to be sure

Fare Thee Well … Dear Lena

With all our Spirit Love

Donovan & Linda & family
