To all who have known and especially for Martie
----------------------------------------------------

Tender is the final sleep
Through the memories to always keep
Only a briefness in drop of sand
From the hourglass of eternity’s hand

Why the others, and not me
But then again, we aren’t meant to see
Only to know there will be once more
When our steps do reach to distant shore

A whisper says, “Do not mourn,
For in this place, we are reborn
We’ve never left you, don’t you see?
Our love does stay through eternity”

What is it that we will see
In that time there is to be
There only can be the firm belief
The time has passed of all our grief

The gather of souls will come around
Without a need of any sound
For in their smiles, you will keep
The knowledge there was, no final sleep

...and in the golden light displayed
where all is full of quiet grace
hear the songs of angels in array
and once again, you'll know my face...
