A new beginning in a world so bright,
Out of the shadows, into his light,
This body that I’ve had since birth,
Was but my anchor here on earth,
My soul has gone to heaven above,
To make a place for those I love.
Remember as the years go by,
My love for you will never die,
So do not grieve too deep for me,
My immortal spirit has flown free,
And I have ridden the wind on high,
Touched the sun and drank the sky.

lovely.
I really love this piece.
It reminds me of how I feel about my mother who died when I was younger...that now she's finally free.
lovely dear.

Brilliant,
Loved the metre of this wee gem, the sentiments from your heart have weaved a touching poem.
I loved these lines...
"This body that I’ve had since birth,
Was but my anchor here on earth,"
Just beautiful and creative.
