When they go away, like the setting Of the sun… There is a feeling of sorrow, Longing for the tenderness, the presence Hope falls silent as the whispers, Calming, kissing away the anguish, Expressions of light – gentling the dreams Who linger, faded in secrets Shadows slowly reflecting the mysteries, Promising heartfelt and breathless Memories Old photographs bring charming journeys, Sweetest diaries, histories, Celebrations of life, lives Just beyond the tranquility, the flow Coloring the years in melodies, Cerulean and warm, soft promises, faraway Heartbeats, beautiful sighs, rich with Blessings, pure grace erasing the darkness With reminiscences, fallen treasures From the heavens Laughter, like quiet faith Reflects the music, dancing in the past Reassuring, wonders so alive Surviving the night, the doubt, the dread Demons of the sin filled quests, Victorious, the love glows in flames Passionate, precious, promising Even in death – though betrayed by The parting, there is the moment When going falls beneath the azure, Floating like silvery clouds, Glorifying the One who meets us In the sky There, in the radiance shining, Blazing past every pain, Denying the heartache, comforting Reflecting the brilliance Mystery – death is like a storybook’s Ending… Destiny unfolding, lifting Away the stars, the skies, the hopes So that there is the moment When the soul flies – like a bird Forever alive where there is never Any reason to cry or sigh – Only the wonder of real life, Eternity raising the hope to new Heights – preparing the soul To know the meaning of true love Love that never dies – Love that lives forever, Love that bring us Together with the One Who created us for His LOVE in heaven!

Death is "preparing the soul To know the meaning of true love/ Love that never dies – Love that lives forever, Love that bring us Together with the One/ Who created us for His LOVE in heaven!" Lofty thoughts so beautifully written. Congratulations Gina on your podium win.
