No More Mourning
As night turned into morning
Fragile soul’s life took on a higher meaning
As each taxed breathe was fleeing...
No rest for the weary this day
Yet, could not forget to pray...
Self became selfless once again
Praying for family, friends and fellow man...
My oh my, how could this be
Dared death come so soon to greet?
On many occasions it has been cheated
All in all, shall not be not afraid
The body takes its rest and the spirit’s raised
Remember the goodness thereof -- Celebrate
For none could hold a good life within the grave…
