Edward Hughes had an addition
Rather he was added to
Grace Elizabeth Sarah Fields
At the age of 22
They saw the world then came to rest
In a garden with bright views
In a gentle twilight
Edward and Grace Hughes
Today he sat alone at table
Grace was absent from his side
He searched for words but was not able
To talk of Grace, swept by the tide
Swept by the tide of time and pain
Cut adrift from peace and love
Drifting near then far again
Until the time he's fearful of
The time when Edward Hughes will be
Alone as once before
When Grace Elizabeth Sarah Fields
Will be there no more
He knows this time must come at last
We all know it too
Yet none of us can bear the thought
The parting of these two
