All Saints' Sunday

This All Saints' Sunday, names were read,
The newly born, the lately dead.
The names of those who were baptized,
The names of those lives finalized.
God's blessings stamped on everyone,
Lives that are gone, lives just begun.

So we must try to live our lives
As more than mothers, fathers, wives.
Each life that when it's lived and done,
Has been another saintly one.
On All Saints' Day, our souls can stand
And join up with the All Saints' Band.

And you have started a song in me and of course it is, "When the Saints Come Marching In", and that is a good thing!  Nicely worded Joyce.

Try to make time to listen to
someone who talks from their heart.

(smiles) This too got the New Orleans brass stuck in my head, sweet friend, I will always love this song as it gets so close to this day's meaning! (kiss on cheek) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Joyce, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
