Haiku 68 Above the Sakura Tree ,Another Spring

 cherry blossoms drift

upon the wooden casket

life after life



In memory of our dear souper friend Lucilla Carillo,and my husband's cousin
David Chircop who finished this journey ,to start a better one.
May your fragrance of love bloom  in the highest of skies as it did on earth.


'Pls remember them,and their loved ones in prayer'.

This is lovely and fitting, especially for those who believe in "life after life". Lucilla was warm, kind and loving; David an example of an honest and hard working person who gave his all and adored his family. (I never spoke to him personally, but many in my family knew him well.) // paul
