Eulogy
(Dedication: For Jan Allison and family)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dark is the night when light goes out;
We ask for sight in screams and shouts.
Yet deep within, we sense a light;
Feel soul unseen in love's pure light.
Grace shows us how the love we feel:
Lives on right now as time does heal.
Be without fear when night floods dark;
Heart sees most clear as grace flames spark.
Let faith and hope show love's sure light;
Grace helps you cope beyond just sight.
Here for a while on this good earth;
True love marks style from birth to birth.
When death takes hold of someone dear,
Be brave and bold and find fond cheer.
Our journey here is but a step;
Both far and near lie in deep maps.
There is a place beyond this earth;
Where soul meets grace in peace and mirth.
