We are your Ancestors.
You are alive today because we loved you.
Yes, we needed you to care for us in our old age.
But if you were born crippled, we still loved you.
And when, like many, you were born dead, or soon died,
we cried, because we wanted to Love you, but life was hard.
Yes, we needed you to help us run 'The Farm'.
And yes, we needed you to continue the work when we died.
But we built 'The Farm' for you to have, so that you could,
knowing we could not be here to always love you.
We are your ancestors.
However smart you are today is because we taught you.
Yes it was not much. We could only teach you what we knew.
But we taught you our best and warned you of our worst.
We prayed it would be enough. Prayed it would be good.
Because we Loved you.
We are your ancestors
Whatever God there is, has blessed us throughout our time.
Blessed to Live, to endure, to survive and thrive during our time,
A time when most brothers, sisters, fathers, mothers and their babies died.
May that God now bless you, as we have been blessed by Him and with You.
Now You Go On. But Remember us.
Hug your children twice. Once for us.
Because we Loved you.
