A Final Thought
Cast my ashes to the wind,
don’t shed another tear.
I’m right next door in a different room
out of sight but always near.
To my beloved family,
our days together too few,
when the road gets long, you’ll stay strong
I’ll be watching over you.
Keep me close, living in your heart
when you lift your face in the rain,
I’ll comfort your soul, lighten your grief,
send memories to ease your pain.
Place no marker in the soil,
the end of the rainbow is where I’ll be.
I’ll bathe you in light from a shooting star
and you’ll smile for you’ll know that it’s me
