Crossed Over dust to dust ashes reclaimed by earth every trace gone of life since birth crossed ye over to the promised land on command by demand and grains of sand count all hours of life devoured since if I had but one wish in which I could abide to touch your soul to see you safe and in God's home whole to see pink roses from kith and kin that peace be yours held close within all the answers in my universe by a choir rehearsed that your love is dispersed there and here and that angels cheer I know ye've crossed over walk in honeyed clover that no pain will ye bear up there so know I'm content though life is spent missing you. ©Karilea Rilling Jungel 7 August 2000 |

Such wonderful words of sentiment and hope....I hope this is not due to a recent real life happening for you....It is not easy even though we know of the elation now bestowed. Beautiful |

Sunshine, I love it. Wow, this is fantastic. "and grains of sand count all hours of life devoured since" so very true. Just a handful of sand is our measure when its all said and done. I am in awe of this piece. |

and grains of sand count all hours of life devoured since if I had but one wish in which I could abide to touch your soul to see you safe and in God's home whole to see pink roses from kith and kin that peace be yours held close within all the answers in my universe by a choir rehearsed that your love is dispersed ...... Ah, ever so splendid... regards, sudhir |

Karilea, my friend~ You stirred my soul with caring ... my eyes with tearing ... my heart with remembering ... but, most of all you touched me. My love and my appreciation. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Mark, any loss is "recent" in time...some of us take a little longer to express our grief than others, but if it helps anyone else see the light, than that is all I can hope for...thank you... Thank you Tony... Alle', I appreciate your comments, thanks... SEA, that is all I could hope for, thank you... Sudhir, thank you for picking out what touched you most... Marge...when souls touch, tears form rainbows...thank you... kcl - first, Welcome to Passions! Second, enjoy yourself here, you will find that most everyone's work comes from their heart, which makes this truly a most special place... Karilea When you want to be loved, look within...KRJ |

Wow! This one touches me deeply. God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. ~Unknown |
