While rocks and hills divide us,

And you no more I see

Just take your pen and paper,

And write a line to me.

Autograph Rhyme

This is another album full of leaves of snowy white, where no name is ever tarnighed but forever here and bright. In the book of life, God's Album, may your name be found with care, and may all who here have written, Have their names forever there.
