If I Should Die

If I Should Die When the autumn leaves Are trampled underfoot When the earth is cold and bare And the sky is overcast and grey, If all that I possess in life Precious loved ones and dear friends All memory, laughter, song and dance Are overcome by grief and sorrow In the end, Think not that I am gone forever But only for a brief moment We have parted company, To meet again for all eternity.

Well written. Happy thoughts about the afterlife. The soul does not die. Where it ends up is another story. Panagiota xx
