The Spirit Prevails

It is a new day Something wonderful happened You are now at peace Like a phoenix rising up From the ashes you prevail We shall not mourn you For you are not gone at all We may not see you Your presence lives on in us Enduring the test of time Radiant light shines Upon us all forever Glorious rays gleam Emitting from your spirit Keeping your memory strong The lives you have touched Will never forget you now Though we may shed tears These are tears of happiness Your spirit forever reigns In the days to come When we are all together Celebrating life Your spirit will consume us Your peace will be our strength Joy and happiness Will be felt every moment You gave us reason To have faith in the future Your legacy will live on…………..

This is beautiful!!! I've read this so many times now it's just amazing, how it attaches to me when I realize that some who has left this land truly still dwells around us. Thank you for having shared this poem, so beautiful.
