Sweet Release
Slowly, oh so slowly,
with each labored breathe;
the soul searches,
searches for its rest.
Searches for the sunshine,
the slivered sound of rain;
searches for the Universal roar,
an ending to the pain.
Searches for serenity,
the gentle touch of love;
searches for the shining Child,
Grace from above.
Now they live in memory
with each passing breath
the soul searches,
searches for and finds
It’s eternal rest.
