While Flowers Die
"Dead leaves lay still until the wind takes them
here and there: even the last flower is withered:
yet there is a beauty in decay. "
Quote by _Constance La France
Although her body rots beneath the earth,
her happy soul awaits its second birth.
* I was thinking of a line in Charles Wesley's 'Hark, the herald angels sing': "Born to give them second birth."
