Eulogy
(Dedication: Remembering SR Nathan, RIP)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Death comes surely to each man here,
End puzzle then with a fond squeeze;
Ask life truly for calm good cheer,
Touch knows just when in the light breeze;
Homeward bound soul must thus transcend.
Observe the scene of earth below,
Free to be whole with swift ascend.
Sense in-between that pleasant glow,
Rise promptly now from mortal chains...
Note that sure light that shines so bright,
Apt this endow that truth marks plain;
Thrill profound sight as soul takes flight,
Hurl fond blessings to kin and friends;
Ample feelings where love sparks grand,
Now earthly things find distant scan.
