Tanka Challenge - Day 12

Today we gathered,
This beautiful sunny day
To sing and speak words
Of praise, love, strength, and laughter
Farewell friend, fly with angels.

There were words from several family members, singing by family and friends, including some members of Concentus. Our group sang Dona Nobis Pacem, which was all right, if a little strained in places, and then we sang Pange Melos Lacrimosum for the first time in public, and performed that beautifully. I think the first song helped open tight throats. I'm glad we could sing as the family wished, but I sure hope we don't have to do this again any time soon.
